What about this beauty?

Colonial Knife was incorporated in 1926 by three brothers; Antonio, Domenic, & Fredrick Paolantonio. It grew to become one of the largest pocket knife manufacturers in the US during the 1960s. The company shut down in 1998, but was back into production under the Colonial Cutlery International Corporation in 2001. Colonial Cutlery International, Inc. brand is the imported line of knives and tools while the U.S.A.- made products fall under the Colonial Knife brand.

What about this beauty?

Post by treefarmer »

Just got this today from 313Mike and thought it should be shown in the Colonial forum. I didn't buy it or trade for it, it came with a couple of knives I had purchased from him. This might be considered a "bomb" ::shrug:: , whatever it is a much appreciated gift from a Marine brother ::handshake:: !
This Colonial started life with a white plastic handle that had a crack. Mike had it re-handled with Bocote wood and a cloud shield and it is just a wonderful knife! Half stops with a snap like a gator!
