I did. Insanely overpriced at around $300 EACH. Leatherman is a TOOL company, not a knife company.

Did and little active rust cleaning with a #2 pencil and cleaned and oiled the joints and cleaned the knife wells and got the old sweet Japan Sabre Barlow and the John Primble snapping real good the Camco Ireland needs more work, I don't think I've ever seen a camco made in Ireland but then I've lead a very sheltered life.

Here are pictures of my newest collectibles. First a Camillus folding hunter with three line stamp and reproduction Remington large gunstock. These were birthday presents from my friend Jerry T.
Then a Wallkill river works barehead jack and a Walden knife co. Eureka jack I bought from Mike, a dealer at the Little Valley show.

Good snappers all of them ::groove::

Keep your edge sharp, otherwise you just can't cut it.

Had a bd a few days ago my son knows I like barlows so he gifted me this kinda new take on a old favorite, dang thing is dangerously sharp out of the box. That point aught to be fine for splinters.

Found this one at a garage sale today. Springbrooke Knife Company. I got it for $1. I have a soft spot for old hawk bills with wooden handles cause I carried and lost one as a youngster. Anyway, I plan on turning this into a sheeps foot like I have seen others do here.

That's got to be a rare brand. I have hundreds of hawkbills and have never seen that name. I'd check with value before I'd alter it. Nice find for a dollar.____Dave...... I checked Levine's Guide and it was a California company around 1900 and is rated high so is worth a few bucks unaltered. Altered, it's worth about what you paid for it.

Looks like you must have been to a "high class" local flea market to find those great Case knives!
