I just acquired this Camillus 72 "short line" for best offer. When I receive it, I'll give it the once over, take some pictures and post them in the appropriate location(s). Here it is.

I just bought this camillus 69 because it looks like it has bone handles; we shall see. Wasn't much money.

I just obtained this pocket knife. Another Camillus 72 (72Y Yello-Jaket), yellow handles, 3 blades, swelled center, "whittler." When it arrives, it will get the once over, but it looks like it's in very decent shape. I'll take pictures and post them in the appropriate location(s).

Ha! I had that one in my watch list, but I decided to save my money. Good work - you stole it!

I won the bid on this'78 Delrin 6235 1/2 on EBAY last night. I probably paid a little too much, but i like it.

Ive been wanting to pick that one up for a while.

I woke up this morning to an email telling me I had won an auction I had set a snipe on several days back and forgot about. (gives new meaning to "set it and forget it"

) I bid because I see it as an oddity. It's a Rough Rider five blade Mini-Trapper. Case made one but I would rather experience one at Rough Rider prices.

Seller's pictures of course. Duh.

I'll recommend one to you, Collector Knives (CK Net) has some, but I don't know how many - the run was from 2017 and I was actually surprised to see any dealer still had one. Could be due to his rating of the pull as a "4" on his website. The knife I received has different pull on all three blades (6+ on the Clip, 5 on the Sheepfoot and 4 on the Spey). The Walk & Talk on all three blades is positive and snappy. OH

Jerry, That is cool and I like cool but different things. I've thought about buying a five blade Stockman for some time (for the same reason) but want one in a Case brand (6592) and they are old, rare, and pricey! Been waiting on my PDL method to kick in but it hasn't yet. Maybe I should check out RR - never owned a RR but I read good things on AAPK about the quality for such and inexpensive knife. OH

Old Hunter · Post by **Old Hunter** » Mon Jan 13, 2020 12:49 pm

Ps Jerry, when you get it in the mail (and fall in love with it), check out this listing from one of our AAPK members - the original version from Case! OH

Colonel, that's a fine looking knife but a little bit stiff for my pocketbook. Ergo my RR purchase.

Well I got lucky last night and ran into a schrade walden 899 on ebay. Peachseed bone and looks mint as can be for its age. Buy it now price was good.

Old Hunter · Post by **Old Hunter** » Mon Jan 13, 2020 2:00 pm

Really mint and really nice Paul! Good find. OH

I'd been looking at this Remington for quite some time. It was $50, with free shipping. Got one of those eBay "Private Offers" y from the seller for $40, and bit on it. First nice knife I've bought in a while. The Cordura sheath was supplied by the seller but is not original. Remington supplied these with open-top crossdraw leather sheaths, which I wasn't very confident about. I guess I can get a leather sheath made for the knife. The knife is supposedly new-old-stock that had lost the leather sheath. Remington came out with the Elite Series in 2006. I bought this for a woods carry, and heavy-duty EDC. 4.5" is on the big side, but not too big for EDC.

My information comes from the Remington website announcement about the series.

https://www.remington.com/news/2006/rem ... ing-hunter

Elite Series II 4.5" Hunting Knife: 440C steel, 4 1/2" closed, 3 3/8 blade. Aluminum handles with 3M "sandpaper" inserts. There is no clip at all on this knife. Made in Italy, by whom I don't know. I first thought Maserin, but nothing in their catalog matches it. I'm leaning more towards Fox as the maker who was contracted. It seems more like their style.

I like the design of this knife very much.

I just obtained this pocket knife for "best offer." It's a Camillus, split spring, whittler pocket knife. All 3 blades have the 4 line tang stamp. Considering that these don't appear on the market that often, I jumped on it. When it arrives, I'll give it the once over. I'll take and post some pictures in the appropriate location(s).

jerryd6818 · Post by **jerryd6818** » Wed Jan 15, 2020 3:56 am

Found this at what I thought was a good price so it's coming to join it's brothers. Not something I'm really enthralled with but I've had the green camo edition for quite some time so decided this one should join it. You might say I picked it up on a whim. Of course none of you have never done that.

I didn't figure you as a pink knife kind of guy Jerry.

Paul, I'm just full of surprises.

I just got it because it's a Mini-T and the seller accepted my bottom feeder offer. Shocked the bejesus out of me.
