Re: It's Sears Craftsman Thursday
That Eagle Stockman is a real beauty, Tim!
Toomanyknives - that Stockman of yours is nice too. You should just stamp your monogram on that brass shield replacement.
OLDE CUTLER - a cool old pair of Scouts.
Joe - Nice old Hunter. That spey blade looks as much like a spear blade as a spey. Kind of unusual.
My knife for today is a 9554 Whittler. Notice that the blade has no stamp. I have a couple of other identical 9554s with the blade stamped.

That's a stout one, Joe. No wonder you like it!FRJ wrote: ↑Thu Jan 15, 2026 11:23 pm What very cool knives and a very fine watch I might add.
I had to take these pictures by the light of a lamp but here it is.
One of my favorite knives.
A nice old hunter with a locking clip and a formidable spey. ____ EDIT: it is a spear blade.
No numbers on the tangs.

That's a true beauty, Mel! I have one that the main blade was broken on, so I made a sort of modified wharncliff out of it. Here it is..Dinadan wrote: ↑Fri Jan 16, 2026 12:02 am That Eagle Stockman is a real beauty, Tim!

Re: It's Sears Craftsman Thursday
I just thought it was an unusual spey. There is quite a bit of variation in speys.
That knife looks like it was just about mint when it was broken. Nice job on the reprofiling: that knife is still looks good. I think more Craftsman knives have a broken blade than any other knives. I have a couple that I got with broken tips and reprofiled into a Sheepsfoot or Wharncliffe. The steel in the Craftsman knives made by Schrade is as good as steel gets, in my opinion.toomanyknives wrote: ↑Fri Jan 16, 2026 2:30 am That's a true beauty, Mel! i have one that the main blade was broken on, so I made a sort of modified wharncliff out of it.

Squeezing this in today. Took it to work since it is fairly small.
From 1973 I believe. Length 3 in.

Re: It's Sears Craftsman Thursday
Thanks Mel. it was in very good shape, except for missing 3/4 of an inch of blade. Whoever had it tried to use it as a pry bar. I look for a good one all the time, but they are getting hard to find without breaking the bank! I agree on that old Schrade steel...Dinadan wrote: ↑Fri Jan 16, 2026 3:49 amI just thought it was an unusual spey.

Re: It's Sears Craftsman Thursday
Here is one jumping a little ahead of Thursday.
95222 made in 2005 by Camillus I believe
A sharp little knife. 3 1/4 inch.
Cant get the snap back on the main blade.
. Love the slanted bolsters though.

It's not a Sears Craftsman, just a regular Craftsman

That's a nice one, Bob. Still makes a good toter, even with a lazy spring..

Re: It's Sears Craftsman Thursday
We are past Thursday, but the cold caused this late post.
Here is another Old Crafty I own. The knife is a
lot heavier than it looks. Very tight to open.
From 1973 made by Schrade I believe.
