Spring is here and the time is right.........for Scout Knives!

[coniferwoodsman]

My daughter and I made our trip to the gun show this weekend and without trying we both ended up with new(to us) scout knives. Here for your perusal are the four that we picked up- for about fifteen bucks.

Top to bottom: Kutmaster Girl Scout Knife- notice the "Safety Can Opener"
Camillus Three Line- Post WWI, bone scales, never sharpened, but plenty of rust specks.
Pal Blade Co.- Bone scales, one chipped, plenty of wear on the main blade and that cool two-piece can opener.
Camillus Four Line- WWII or prior, black plastic scales, steel liners and some sort of can opener that makes no sense to me.
All are in various states of restoration, needing bails, cleaning and such, but my oh my..........
Please post your scout knives.

All The Best
Dave

That bone Camillus is a nice piece. Great grab.

I only have one "scout", a Camillus Engineer's knife from WWII.

It's funny, but I've just recently picked up a few Scouts also. A month ago I got this Ulster:

Then I found this Girl Scout Featherweight (a Utica with good traces of the original polish on the beautiful main blade):

The this Boker "Tree Brand" showed up (it's currently sitting in oil):

And last, just got this one (which I bought more for the really nice scales):

I'll try to get a group photo up soon.
