Yes, in spite of his denial and all evidence to the contrary, I suspect Skip may be trying corner the 72 market as well. I don't keep a running tally on other peoples' knives (except for their Mini Trappers, of course) so I have no way to know for sure and could be mistaken; but, based on what I've observed, I think he may still have a ways to go to catch up to jerryd, Floyd and Smitty in the 72 department (although we all know it's not a race or competition). I thought I had it bad with just two OCD Monkeys on my back (Mini-T Monkey and Wharncliffe Monkey); but, apparently, Skip is a man with so many interests (i.e., obsessions), the poor guy must have an entire troop of OCD Monkeys riding on his back. ::uc:: :shock:
Here are MY totals:
CASE 6207's - 15
CAMILLUS 72's - 37
CAMILLUS 72 Variations, Clones, Wannabe types, etc. - 120

These amounts could hardly be considered, cornering the market.

Skip, Skip, Skip. This is all in good fun. I never considered any of it a contest. No need to take umbrage. You needn't to take exception to our joking around but if you do, I apologize and will take note for the future.

I'm not ashamed to admit it: I will buy every 1991 S&M 042151 I possibly can...if that constitutes an attempt to corner the market then so be it. When it comes to that particular knife, The Monkey's greed and desire knows no bounds, restraints, restrictions or limitations (not to mention discipline or self-control).

Here's another S&M 042151 I picked up recently: Premier model from 2002 with the New York tang stamp.

P4170010.JPG
P4170011.JPG
P4170017.JPG

This is my second one of this model...so, I have only 398 more to go in order to corner the market! ::nod::

Oh poor me. I only have one. But I'm good with that.
S&M 042 151 Series I Mini-Trapper - Labeled.JPG
It's Camillus 14's that I have trouble laying off of. They're great little knives and for the most part, inexpensive. ::facepalm::

My first one. Got it in 2013 for $12.27.
$12,27.JPG
Number 16 that I got in 2020 for $6.10 plus shipping $3.95
Camillus 14 ~ Early 70's - Indian Stag Delrin Handles - Labeled.JPG
I've given a few away but still hang on to the majority.
There's plenty more out there but I'm a bottom feeder and I make a concerted effort to stay away from them, otherwise there wouldn't be any room left here.

Skip...you're a good sport. ::nod:: FWIW, I wouldn't needle you if I didn't think you could take it. (Also, The Monkey is slightly envious of your OCC Mini Trapper collection...and he can be ruthless when he gets all twisted up with jealousy. ::mdm:: )

I am curious if all 15 of your 6207s are the same OCC model or are there other 07s hiding in your collection that you haven't revealed? ::hmm::

Strangely, the color is quite a bit darker than the Burgundy bone on my other 042151 from 2006:

For today's Mini TrapPER DIEM I present this little (3 3/8" closed) Parker Cutlery Co. IMO the made-in-Japan Parker knives are the best made knives under the Parker brand name. And, they're amazingly inexpensive, too. :)
