Charlie - I like that Premier. How many different spiral punches are there? I'm only familiar with what Camillus had.

J.E.Fuller patented one for New York Knife Co. in 1916, so that makes three that I know of.
Fuller's punch had a laminated tang, and the blade was forged over in a "curl".
I don't have good pics, but I'll post one as soon as I can.
 
Firstly, this is by far one of the really great threads of 2010 in this sub-forum! Thank You Steve for this one!. Terrific contributions by everyone here!.

I was reared on the Stockman pattern folding pocket knife early on from when I was a kid in the mid-late 1960's and early 1970's. Although, my very most favorite Stockman pattern was this hand-me-down Case XX (1940-64) model #64047P (4) blade from my uncle Lew, which I still have and carry once in a great while.. Uncle Lew demonstrated the value of having multiple blades, including the invaluable punch blade at ones disposal while out in the woods during hunting, fishing and hiking adventures many, many times. In the winter of 1969-70 he passed this one down to me. It was a very happy moment when I received this knife.. :)

I have recently acquired this 1975 Case # 64047P in Red Bone to EDC and carry whenever I am out woods walking around hunting game or fresh water fishing for Largemouth Bass or Frog gigging, ect., ect.. Or anytime I'm out in the sticks for any occasion when I want to make life easier while in survival mode. She really provides me with the very best of all cutting tools you may ever need..

Two gorgeous knives Anthony! Either qualifies for "if you could have just one . . . . . . . . . . . ."!!:D
 
This Schrade made stockman. "She does it for me."

Wonderful bone!
Imagine if Old Timers had nice bone handles!
 
thawk, very nice parker-frost. That bone is gorgeous. Its good to see other people also carry and use parker-frost slipjoints made by Schrade. Mine has same Bison etching but lacks Schrade stamp beneath year stamp.
 
I recently found this hiding in a drawer. Never even knew I had it and don't know where it came from.

I'm sure someone gave it to me as a gift when I was too young to care about knives much, but neither I or my parents remember who gave it to me.

I've been carrying it off and on for the last few weeks and have really enjoyed it. Is this some type of patina that has formed on the springs? Only the outsides are this dark gray color.

It's hard to make out in the pics but the main blade reads: "Schrade+ U.S.A. 897UH"

Anthony, thanks for the kind words.I love those 4 blade Cases you have.Are those ns liners on the red one I see?
Hal, I've always liked the stamp on the early Parker Frost knves.I used to have a double knife set. One was a damascus trapper with a razor blade and I can't recall what the other one was in the set.

That's a very attractive knife Anthony. I have never seen a Case like that in person but think I'll be on the look-out for one in the future. It does look like it would come in handy for many situations.
 
This is a four-blade knife with a punch. Wostenholm calls it a 'Farmers' knife. It seems similar except without the serpentine handle shape.

That's a dandy, Steve! And its even stamped 'oil the joints'.. I think I love that one!


Best,
Anthony

Yes sir, she is a (4) blade/tool slippy Stock pattern pocket knife on only (2) Nickel Silver liners and back-springs for support. A time tested pattern that WR Case discontinued and for some reason abandoned for other patterns..

A foolish decision if you ask me??.. :eek:

Anyways, Thanks Again for this great thread. :thumbup:

Anthony - With the two liner setup, is there a washer or bushing between the blades, or are they directly in contact with each other?
 
They should start making ns liners again. It was like they were just a bit upscale from brass. I had the 2 blade jack in the same XX with nickel.

Grand ole knives for sure.....

I am sticking in a photo I am using in my seminar on the 300 series at the Buck Collectors Club event at Smokey Mountain Knife Works next Th -Sat. I thought it might be interesting to those couple three folks that edc Buck Stockmen. This is a group of 303 Cadets. Showing the changes in blade grinds. By year from 1990 to 2006.
The first five from the LEFT are flat ground. Then the next five are 'tapered' to thin the 420 Bos edge for easier cutting and sharpening. The remaining knives are convex ground to enhance that even more. Its called taking the great heat treatment to the edge, so to speak.
