Great catch, Tony, I see that nice Khyber you added to the bunch, not quite as cool as the other model the 1610 you showed us, but nice nonetheless. ::tu::

I came across the Camillus advertising knife for Mitchell Powers Hardware store, stamped 1995 serial number 0988.
I don't really collect these, but the price was right!

I don't usually collect these, but I saw this in an antique store yesterday. The regular knife pickings were sparse, and the price was right on this, so I grabbed it. Hugo Berns, Germany. It looks to be all there and basically unused.

Great find. Unused and beefy. Looks like it would actually stand up to use. Congrats.

Yeah the pliers seem pretty darn solid. Certainly not the quality of those Imperial tool kits.

Just knocking around today and found these 2 in Millsboro, DE. A four-line Camillus, Hawk and a Colonial 2 blade Stockman. Both are in great, original condition. The Hawk is 1941-46 and the Colonial is a long pull with a long spey, maybe late 40's-50's with that cool-looking, fake bone-stag. Less than a twenty for both. Lucky boy! :D They're still out there! J.O'.

Thanks all. Just a lucky guy today. They're both nice old pieces. I've been fortunate to average a couple knives a week. That's 104 a year!!! ::ds:: O'.
