All About Pocket Knives

Suhweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet knife OH!!

I received a package from Colonial Knice Co today with some knives for review....thought I'd share them here....

In addition was this polishing towel, item flyers and a decal!

Looks like some more good stuff Scott! You are going to have to come up with a special way to display all of your Colonial stuff in one spot, you've got some really unique stuff now, would make for a cool display....That girl scout knife looks mighty fine...
Mike

Scott,
Where can I find one of those Girl Scouts? That is really an eye catcher!
Randy

Randy-

Try Amazon, eBay.....I found a Girl Scout on eBay bid up to 18.00 yesterday.

I talked with Steve P. yesterday. Those are imports and there were 2500 of each handle made.....

He told me to hold onto mine and give it to my daughter!

Scott, nice Colonials! How about finding out from your source if the blue Official Cub Scout/USA on Colonial's website is available for purchase? I can see it on their website, but cannot figure out how to buy one. You could become a Colonial dealer - we could order from you! Thanks, Bruce (OH)

Yeah, I've wanted that same knife Bruce (that's my brother's name).....
I'll check into it.

here is a couple colonials i picked up

Scott,
The girlscout Colonial is an import? Can you show a pic of the stamp?
Thx
Mark

Bruce.....Steve says Cub Scout Knives can be purchased from the official Scout webpage.

Mark.....are you questioning my authority? LOL, JK.....Even though it clearly says COLONIAL PROV RI, the owner of the company, Steve Paolantonio told me they were made in China.
And you'll see by clickng on the text Jerry posted, and reading the description, it's Imported.

Steve told me......as I always tell others: It's all about the money!

Scott,
Question you? NO!! Never.lol
I was just wondering how it could say Prov, RI, if its made in China?

I Know......I know........

Jerry & Scott thanks for the leads, will try to order one when I get home this weekend. OH

This NIP peanut just came in the mail today:

Can't get much fresher than sealed in the original package - nice pickup Scott.

Thanks Bruce!

Used this late 90's Colonial Knife catalog as a prop that shows the actual knife!

Scott is that like a peanut? I love the Colonials they are quite like the Imperials.Heres a few of mine.

Yes sir Bob, it's under 3" so it's qualified as a peanut!!

Thanx Scott to bad the new Colonial couldn't bring back some of the old patterns I think they could thrive

I was doing an e-bay search one day last week, just looking at anything labeled Colonial in the knife & collectibles sections and a bunch of these Colonial trucker-novelty knives popped up. There was a Coca-Cola version for about $89.00 and a few for $24.00 dollars (+/-) and then this one for $7.50 shipped. I thought what the heck, just for fun I wanted it, and the blade configuration is a favorite - so here it is. These must have been quite popular at one for so many to be listed now at a given time. It is a USA made Colonial, sitting on my reloading shelf now.

Ps The clip blade must have been designed for a guy who opened too many beers with the bottle opener, so he wouldn't cut himself - you would be hard pressed to slice butter with the edge.

Cool little knife Old Hunter! I've bid on a few of those in the past but they always went higher than I wanted, you got a good score with that one. Nice conservation piece, and even better, it's got a clever little Peterbilt ad on it! That reminds me of this other Peterbilt knife I picked up a while back, it's only marked USA, but I'm pretty sure it's a Colonial. (Same thing with the Shake n' Bake)
Mike

Found this Old Cutler barlow soon after reading this post. Thanks Scott.
Without the information that Scott posted I would have passed on this well built and well finished knife. It will be fine addition to my barlow collection.

You're welcome Bill

Knice knife!!

Bill, those Old Cutlers are diamonds in the rough - you would never guess that they are the equal of an Old Timer until you start using/carrying one.

Mike, pretty neat and colorful advertising knives. There is a country store not far from me that has a card that is 90% full of the same knife as your Peterbilt knife, after looking them over good I am sure they are Colonials. I would buy them but they are "UNC Tarheels" marked knives - just couldn't let them have space under my ECU Pirates roof!

Scott, the packaged knife, taken on the old catalog, sure looks more interesting than a picture of the same knife taken without a good background doesn't it?
