Kamp King knives

[Papa Bones]

Lots of fond memories with the Kamp King

Very nice set GardDog. You don't see the red or green stag pattern handles that often. They also made a white version, like those, not to be confused with the smooth white handles.

Arriving recently in a very large group or lot of pocket knives that I bought, this pocket knife now becomes the most recent example to be posted under this topic or thread. However, I did NOT buy the group or lot to obtain this particular pocket knife. But, as it turned out, this pocket knife is definitely a keeper and will be a welcome addition to my general pocket knife collection. It is an Imperial, one blade, three tools (a can opener, a cap lifter or bottle opener and a punch or awl), two tang stamps, 3 3/4" closed (not including the bail), camping or scouting, pattern or style of pocket knife. The main blade front tang stamp says "Imperial (with crown) (over) PROV. USA" The can opener front tang stamp says "CAN OPENER (over) P2391732" It is in VERY GOOD condition. It needed very little cleaning. I took some pictures and here it is.

Not too recently, this scout or camping, pattern or style of 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. I did NOT buy the group or lot of pocket knives to obtain this particular pocket knife. But, it does have some life left in it. It did get added to my general, pocket knife accumulation. It is an Imperial, "KAMP-KING", one blade, three tools (a can opener, a cap lifter or bottle opener and a punch or awl), one tang stamp, one tool stamp, 3 3/4" closed, scout or camping, pattern or style of pocket knife. The main blade front tang stamp says, "Imperial (with crown) (over) PROV. R.I." with a vertical "USA" on the side. The can opener tool front stamp says, "CAN OPENER (over) P.2391732" The shield says, "KAMP-KING" The bail is missing. The main blade does have a WEAK half stop. The main blade does have an OK opening snap. The main blade does have an OK closing snap. The three tools ALL open, close, and function properly. Overall, this pocket knife is still in FAIR condition. It did need a little bit of a cleaning. I took some pictures and here it is.

I love these they remind me of my youth

I was directed to post this question here. My knowledge is limited with Imperial Kamp King but I came across one that I’ve never seen before. This one only has 1 blade and 2 tools and it’s smaller than the regular Kamp King. Is this common with older “USA under” Imperial Kamp King? Any info is greatly appreciated, thank you.
