I found some whittler parts to play with

Post by Meridian_Mike »

I was cruisin' around on the net and found these swell center parts.
I figured they were just liners BUT dog gone, all but 2 have springs!

In the last picture, I noticed there is a split back in there.
And, a couple of these swell centers are kinda larger and fatter that the standard Camillus #72 pattern whittler.
These should be fun to play with.

Thanks for the comments everyone!

I have never had a "split back"... it sure does seem like a cool idea.

RECON WHO made this guy?

I would like to go see some pics of the VINTAGE split backs......
