It is a gen 1, where the pen blade is next to the main clip with the coping blade on the left side. Blades do have wear & stains, but are tight with good snap. The Camillus on the tang stamp of the main clip blade is worn, but you can see it and the short line is distinguishable. Bone handles still have good color. Proud to have another addition to my Gen 1 72's.

::tu:: Thanks, this was the most recent, the others I picked up over the last year and a half. But I will say it was more luck. I looked for 5 years and never run across an 80, the the last year and a half they just showed up here and there.

Wow TopDog ... the Vaquero looks unused! 8) Piece! Them CS Japans don't show up much anymore except on eBay, where prices are too high. If I find a reasonable price at a flea market or a neighborhood store, it is going home with me. Great Score!!! ::handshake::

Many thanks CxIII ::handshake:: It came with the original box as well. ::nod:: I got it at a local knife shop that gets lot of good used items in all the time. I have an EDC Vaquero, but that thing is beat to hell! ::skeptic:: ... ::uc:: It looks like they used it testing on "Forged in Fire" ... ::facepalm::

Another nice addition to your growing 72 short lines ! Maybe I need to come hang out with you fellas down there so as to see how you guys find all these little honey holes . It’s not so good a pickings up here . That would be one to continue getting pocket time .
Have a great day down there Smitty . ::handshake::

If you only buy just a few more, and if one of those is that really cool one you've always been looking for, the itch goes away.

Until you see another cool knife.

::oh_my:: ::oh_my:: ::oh_my:: Looks like a duo of sweet stag Marble's in that pre-Christmas haul.


Glad I pumped the brakes on this one, about half of what they had been selling for. 🤑
