These were too cool not to bring home. CAMCO U.S.A. (Camillus) Electricians Knife. (3 1/4" closed).... in very good condition. Kabar folding hunter (1184 U.S.A.) , 5 1/4 " closed. Delrin scales. Blades need to be shown some appreciation. One scale loose (easy fix). A hefty knife. Both knives kind of traditional classics....everyday users. Also , a Leatherman Wave leather case.... I needed this.... the two knives I just wanted. :cool:

I gave $25, $25 and $10.... not steals but worth the price paid (to me).

Thanks GT...I agree on the Electricians knife... mighty fine. It is very tight tho' ... need
to lube and work the blades open & closed a bit. The brass lockout for the flathead screwdriver
is very stout ! Already like this knife ! :)

25 for the 1184 isnt bad at all. I have a couple of the older style, with the big blocky pivot bolster. Serious old knives. Would love to land one of the old stag examples.
 
Andre... i too would love to find a vintage 1184 with stag... don't see much stag
at the swap meet. I figured the prices I paid were about average ...not great , but
good. I slightly over-paid for the CAMCO but I rationalized it by seeing how good of
condition it was in ...almost new old stock.
