The Camillus Saw Scouts

Very sorry for missing your helpful post before Buzz. I decided to pick up one of the new ones a few weeks back, and like it :) :thumbsup:

Those field hones are awesome. I always have one in my pack.

I picked up a vintage KABAR model a couple months ago, along with a matching large soft Arkansas pocket stone. It's a really nice combination, and the stone looks to have never been used. The stone is a little big for a pocket stone, at over 4" long, but I very much prefer that size over the typical 3" pocket stone. I may pay out for an old KABAR bench stone next, just to complete the set. Or maybe a KABAR hard pocket stone. I'm a sucker for sharpening equipment.

That's a real nice find Buzz :)
 
That's a nifty oddball!!! I've never seen an R4 with a scalloped blade. But it seems like there are a lot of interesting "parts knives" out there in auctionland right now. I see traditional 4-blade scouts with Remington shields and the R4 designations on the blades.
Thought so too. But I've seen one with the scalloped blade before. In fact, there's another one on eBay now.
 
Beautiful collection Buzz. You have me wanting to start picking up some scouts now.
 
Just picked this up off eBay. Has the serrated/scalloped blade. I like it, so I'll keep it as is. This one comes in just the little box.View attachment 720579

Yeah. I picked up that last serrated R-4 on auction. I felt the irresistible need to pick up all possible saw scout combinations, whether they be planned or factory oopses.
