Right!!Downright scary!
It does look like that little box was made for that knife.
That is one fine lookin’ TC John. The consistent diagonal jigging pattern almost makes it appear to be a sawcut to me - or maybe I’m just weird like that.
Love the coloring on that!!Been a busy few days and I'm just getting around to posting my knife for trapper Tuesday.View attachment 1833060
Is it weird to quote your own post? Maybe I’m the first But I had to follow up. Tonight I looked around and found another box (why do I have so many boxes??) to trade with my son. It was a wolf box, from Traverse City if there are any Michiganders here, and he ran to his room to trade up so fast that he nearly tripped!This is a small (maybe tin?) box that was made in India that my parents gave me when I was little. How it has survived I have no idea… I had to sneak into my sons room and nab it because I gave it to him a few years back. It’s the perfect home - and perfect fit - for the 36 so I may need to find something else to trade him to get it back

Camillus made knives for a lot companies. I know Utica made knives for Klein at one time.Letting my old 1978, "O" tang stamp, KLEIN TOOLS COPING knife air out a bit this evening
Far as I know, Klein never made a pocket knife. Camillus may have made this one for Klein. Dunno

I thought Kline was a sub-brand of Utica, but what do I know?
How adorable!
