Re: Now we have a Colonial thread,Show'em
Not too long ago, this pocket knife arrived in a group or lot of pocket knives that I bought. It now becomes my latest example to be posted under this topic or thread. It also becomes the latest example to be added to my general pocket knife collection. I did NOT buy the group or lot to obtain this particular pocket knife. It is a USA, one blade, one tool (a cap lifter or bottle opener), two tang stamps, 3 1/8" closed, two springs, pocket knife. The main blade front tang stamp says, "U.S.A." The tool front tang stamp also says, "U.S.A." The blade has a very crisp opening and closing snap. The tool also has a very crisp opening and closing snap. Overall, this pocket knife is in VERY GOOD condition. It required very little cleaning. I took some pictures and here it is.

Re: Now we have a Colonial thread,Show'em
The following advertising, fob or key ring, pattern or style of pocket knives, were among various groups or lots of pocket knives that I have purchased over the last couple of years. They now become my latest examples to be posted under this topic or thread. Not one of these pocket knives was the actual target of, or reason for, my purchase. They are however, in good enough condition to be added to my general, pocket knife collection. They are NOT in any particular order.

They are as follows:
Pictures #1 to #5.
ALL are USA, one blade, one tang stamp, 2 3/8" closed (NOT including the loop or ring), tip bolsters, advertising, fob or key ring, pattern or style of pocket knives. ALL of the main blade front tang stamps say "U.S.A." ALL of the blades have a good half stop and a good opening and closing snap. ALL of these pocket knives are in VERY GOOD condition.
Picture #6.
It is a COLONIAL, two blades, one tang stamp, 2" closed (NOT including the loop or ring), tip bolsters, advertising, fob or key ring, pattern or style of pocket knife. The main blade front tang stamp says, "COLONIAL (over) PROV. U.S.A." Both blades have a good half stop and a good opening and closing snap. This pocket knife is in VERY GOOD condition.

More great additions to your collection, Skip!
I will add that the 1958 Packard Hawk was not a well-liked car; one writer referred to it as "a ghastly end to a grand old name." A photo of a '58 Hawk is linked below.

Re: Now we have a Colonial thread,Show'em
This figural pocket knife arrived in a group or lot of pocket knives that I bought. It now becomes my latest example to be posted under this topic or thread. It also becomes the latest example to be added to my general pocket knife collection. I did NOT buy the group or lot just to obtain this particular pocket knife. It is a COLONIAL, one blade, one tang stamp, 2 1/8" closed (not including the bail), bowling pin pocket knife. The main blade front tang stamp says, "COLONIAL (over) PROV. R.I. (over) U.S.A." The bail appears to be a homemade replacement. But, it does serve its purpose. The blade has a good half stop with a good opening and closing snap. Overall, this pocket knife is in VERY GOOD+ condition. It did not need any cleaning. I just wiped it off. I took some pictures and here it is.

Re: Now we have a Colonial thread,Show'em
This Barlow was in a group of nine knives I acquired last week. It was dirty, rough and rusty when I got it, and someone didn't do a good sharpening job in the past. I put a healthy amount of effort into it to make it (I think) a pretty decent EDC. I do like Barlows.
