This brings back fond memories. My match safe had the rubber gasketed screw on lid and had the BSA logo on the side. I would love to still have my first scout knife, I think it was an Imperial, but especially my Official Boy Scout Plumb hatchet.‘93 Case Camp Knife and a Park Sherman Match Safe. Lot of good times with this rig.
