Capital couple of Camillus classics, Rob! :thumbsup::cool::thumbsup: I especially like that second one with the EO notch and shackle. Did it start life as a Navy utility knife?

Thanks, Rob. :) That photo was taken in the summer, I think, so probably less windy. I actually took the photo near dusk, and that's one of the few photos where I like the flash version better than the no-flash version. Here's the same shot with just the fading natural light:

There are no markings that would indicate Navy issue, but, they did issue one like it. Not sure if they marked the military issued ones differently.
I see what you mean, the first pic of your Hartshead is by far the best one. :thumbsup:😍

Congratulations on "staying after it" and making a deal on that hard to find copperhead TC. I still have mine from 2012. :thumbsup: 😍
Now you can wish for the two bladed one, which would be nearly impossible to find. 😊

First, I’m glad you and Neal made it home safely. You did remember to bring him home, right?

Oh no!! I knew I’d forgotten something! 😳

You’re correct. I picked it up, verified it’s condition, and went on to coonfinger a bunch of his other knives, before I thought I’d better grab it while I could.
That guy’s name is Mike, and I believe he’s gotten some of my money three years in a row. He told me he had to wait for another dealer to pass on before he could snag that booth right inside the door.

I just remembered that Neal bought something from him right before we left, too.

That is a great spot he’s got there by the door. He’s a nice guy, with pretty fair prices and a willingness to negotiate.

Well ,,,, I really have not done cutting with it other than some paper and it needs to be sharpened . I doubt that it has ever been sharpened properly after the factory . I like it for a few reasons .
1. It is a Taylor Eye Witness . I looked over about 200 of the sellers knives and asked if he had an Eye Witness . I had bought a couple off him before and I have a small group of them . Both Old & New ones .
2. It has a very unique blade orientation and knew immediately that it was not broken due to an old thread from back in 2017 or 2018 .
This goes along with Liking Pruners and Cotton Samplers .
3. It has been carried very little . The Tips of the jigged bone still look new .
4. It has all Steel Liners and Pins . The Blade is most likely Stainless .
5. It still has all of the Etchings on the blade .
6. I was looking for a Low Priced , or as you and I would say , Cheap knife , and I bartered with the seller and he accepted .
7. I had looked for some very specific knives and only saw 3 that I wanted and the guy who had them wanted to Retire off of me .
8. I wish that it was a little larger though . I have not measured it yet , but I would guess it to be about 3 & 1/2 inches

I will be cleaning , sharpening , flitzing , and oiling it and getting it ready to use some . I am very happen to have it for $50 .

We've had a pair of robins in our back yard for a couple of weeks, some crocuses have popped up in the back yard, and now I've seen my first Peep of the season - spring must be just around the corner! 🤓


Awesome Wards cattle knife! :cool::thumbsup::cool:


Have an enjoyable and safe trip, Mike; you DO have a lot of fantastic knives! 🤓:thumbsup::cool:



My sentiments exactly! :thumbsup::thumbsup::cool:
I always admire knife-on-post photos, but knife&stout-on-post is even better! 😁


That's absolutely stunning!! 😲:thumbsup::thumbsup:

That bottom knife is intriguing! :thumbsup::thumbsup::cool: I like the sowbelly handle shape, but what blade combo does it have? I think I see only 2 blades.


Fabulous "feathering" on your horn-handled knife, Jim! :thumbsup::thumbsup:😲

It's more like a 3-spring whittler. It has full length drop point and spey on the other end.
