No, no. It's because it's so very much like my favorite knife! If I'd owned yours I would have never let it get away!Does that wink mean that this was this once in your possession?

That’s what I had originally figured, but then thought maybe it had a deeper history than I knew about.No, no. It's because it's so very much like my favorite knife! If I'd owned yours I would have never let it get away!

I knowAnd I think it's vintage. When I picked up the package, I thought wow..this is heavy. Fit and finish is super ! ( except for the nail nick issue) I am so surprised and a lockback whittler too. Who doesn't like yellow !
That Ancient is too swoon for....wow !!!! Great photograph![]()
Great job!I bought this 4” Camillus to mod. The plastic scales were shrunken and curling at the ends. The blades were crusty and lightly pitted.
Broke it apart and fitted it with smooth elk antler. Sort of an experiment since I like smooth bone, and elk antler is harder and really takes a polish.
Kinda like it. In my pocket today.
