It is a Cold Steel replica of a Gunstock war club;

The gunstock club or gun stock war club is an indigenous weapon used by Native Americans(Indians, to Non-PC older guys), named for its similar appearance to the wooden stocks of muskets and rifles of the time. Gunstock clubs were most predominantly used by Eastern Woodland and Northern Plains tribes in the 18th and 19th centuries.

I had a modern made "real" one made out of wood and years ago I sold it to a guy from France and missed it ever since ::dang::

Everyone should own at least one.

If I had thought of using one of these as a sundial I wouldn't have wasted $2,000 on an Omega Seamaster watch years ago... ::dang:: It may not have worked as well for telling time (especially scuba diving, and at night and not good at all for scuba diving at night) but I could have used the $2K to buy more knives ::hmm:: Why didn't I join this sight sooner? ::shrug::

Picked up another Camillus 72. Used but in good working order. This one is a long line Camillus, with black handles. I believe it is a early black handle long line becuase it has the smaller 72 stamp on the pile side of the master clip blade. No wobble in the blades, although they to have use, spots, and stains. Master clip blade is blunted a bit, and secondary clip seems the tip may have been reformed. Secondary clip and coping blade has great snap, the master clip blade has less but is decent. I believe it will clean up into a decent carry.

Nice finds Scott! You always come across some sweet goodies. ::tu::

I picked this one up over the weekend. Didn't have one with this blade arrangement, so added it to my Camillus family. A double line tang stamp Camillus TL29BX All Trade Knife. It comes with the locking screwdriver, Hawkbill blade, & simulated woodgrain delrin handles with a bail. Very little use, all blades are tight, great snap, and positive half stops. The bail was a little tarnished and the only part of the knife that needed any cleaning. Not bad for two Sawbucks.

Thanks Tvic, but Scott is the one with all the luck. My luck is usually finding One-sies, two-sies, and three-sies, Scott's luck finds them by the bucket load. ::woot::
