Two gorgeous Primbles you've got there Stuart! :thumbsup:
Nice photos too.
The serpentine jack makes me feel envious.;)

Looking at your old friends, I can't help but think they both might have been made for Primble by Camillus. It is just an observation, I am no authority. Perhaps some here with much more knowledge can shed some light on the subject. I gotta keep my eye out for books on dating and identifying old pocket knives.

Thanks buddy, York floods pretty regularly, but they're always prepared for it there, and at the moment most of the flooding here is a little further south. The #44 was a gift from Duncan @Campbellclanman, when he visited from NZ earlier in the year, and he actually gave it to me on a rainy day in York :) That's a shame, there's a few things you can do to lighten up the pulls if you still have it? Good health to you, and have a great weekend :thumbsup:
Thank you. So far, so good. Life is good regardless of the issues we all have to deal with. Watching the knives and discussions here and getting the occasional traditional knife are one of my small joys in life.
I moved the #44 on, but when I get better I will likely have another.
 
SK Blades "Smoke Jumper" Buck 110.

Barehead Buck 371 with black and blue G10 covers; A Walmart SFO a few years ago.

Genuine Faux Almost Exact Copy of a WWII/Cold War era German 111mm "Swiss Army Knife" "Bundeswher".
(I think it cost under $6, at some truck stop somewhere on the East Coast.)

I can't afford the real vintage antique.

This model was discontinued by Victorinox and Wergner decades ago. Please don't hate me for buying a copy of a discontinued knife.

:thumbsup: Yes, life is good. That realization, as well as taking pleasure in small things often comes after having been knocked down and kicked around a bit. Thanks for the reminder, my friend!

@Duckdog & Cutfinger Cutfinger ~ All jacks are nice, but Big Jacks have a little something extra.:cool:
