The All Scout Knives Thread

[New_Windsor_NY]

I am wondering how old this Cub knife may be. If anyone knows approximately what time frame these were produced, I'd appreciate the info. Thanks in advanced!

Hope you all enjoy the pictures & thanks for looking!

Tom, the date range is 1948 to approximately 1985.

I think the Camillus Long Line with the Blocked Italic or Canted Letters were from the 1970's until around 1988. Here is a guide I found here on AAPK.

Thanks guys!

I didn't even think to check the "Research" part of the AAPK. It' a 70's - 80's Tang Stamp. And now I know.

I've been Scout Bombed by Ryan (Stanwade) with a Kutmaster GSUSA Junior (3 3/8") ........ I wonder if Joan Scott (name on the box) knows her knife is missing? ............ Thank you Ryan!

I have figured it out Skip! It must be a "72"!
The Lord works in mysterious ways!
I must be more specific when I pray. I kept praying for a Camillus "72". l forgot to say "Whittler".

Better be careful Tom. The purists freak out when you call a CAMILLUS 72, a "whittler." That's why I use quotation marks, because the CAMILLUS 72 isn't a "true whittler."

Camillus and BSA called it a Whittler.

Charlie, I know that and you know that, but there are those..........

Tom, my mom & dad gave me one of those Cub Scout knives for my 10th birthday, that was in 1977. I still have it, but the blade has little to no snap. I probably opened and closed it to death as a kid.


Cool knife bomb, Ryan.

That's cool that you still have it after all these years!

I had some PK's (4 or 5) of mine at home but in 2016 when my dad passed away, I gave them to my cousin Jason. At the time I did not know that I would start collecting PK's a couple of years latter. Most of them were just junky knives but one was an small Schrade OT Stockman. I also had 3 or 4 fixed blades. At least 2 maybe even 3 of which my father had hand made. Nice looking knives! I gave those to an Uncle. I didn't know at the time that I could have mailed them over here & my thought was, before they lay around & rust, I'll give em to somebody who will take care of them. I'm still kicking myself. Of course I could ask for them back but that's not my style. I don't give stuff away, then ask if I could have it back. Oh well, that's life I guess. You live & you learn & some lessons are more painful than others.

I still like to show my Jack Knife Ben JUNIOR SCOUT knife around.

[Meridian_Mike]

Oh man... that is a cool one for sure!
Thanks for showing!

[doglegg]

Show it as often as you like. Great little knife.

Today, this knife joined my collection. It is a CAMILLUS, 3 blade, Boy Scout pocket knife with bail. It is the "75th ANNIVERSARY - BOY SCOUTS OF AMERICA - 1910-1985 pocket knife. It didn't need any cleaning. I took a few pictures, here it is.

[Meridian_Mike]

Nice one Skip!
I need to get me one of those!

[Quick Steel]

Certainly a fine acquisition.
