Let's see your Scout/Camp knives

[waynorth]

Indeed a twin, Kevin!!
The etch is pretty light on mine, probably easily worn away!
They probably called that Orange, "Tan", but it's definitely Orange!!

 

[waynorth]

Can one have too many Scouts??

 

[North Shore]

Can't have too many if they're of that quality

 

[Campbellclanman]

Charlie- NO......One cannot have too many, especially of that Caliber my friend, funny, I was thinking of bringing out my Scouts soon to Oil them, Wax the Steel, and Wax the bone up as well!

Here is a full stainless Wenger Tahara swiss army knife made for Neiman Marcus, kind of a rare bird

Remington R4243. Its a big one. This one would be better in a belt sheath than in the pocket. Shown with a Vic Spartan for scale.

 

[hsherzfeld]

That's enormous!

 

[mbkr]

That's enormous!

It's a whopper I think its the same as the one Ed Modoc posted earlier.
Here it is next to a Buck 110.

These Scout/Utility knives bear interesting shields!

 

[waynorth]

Colorful handles, too!!

Who made it?

 

[mbkr]

Who made it?

Its dated 1994, so I think its a Camillus.

 

[buckthorn]

That’s what I would have assumed. Thank you.

 

[Campbellclanman]

Charlie! Absolutely fantastic Knives, Real mouth watering stuff there my friend!

My love for knives basically began with the quest for the original Dwight Divine / Ulster official scout knives. I've been working at finding the best examples of the old ones that I can find, without breaking the bank of course Although some of these are really hard to find in decent shape even if you have deep pockets But here are the best ones I've found to date, most still have a little etch left on them: ULSC4A (BSA #1502, 1923-1926), ULSC4C (BSA #1503, 1923-1926), ULSC4D (BSA #1502, 1927-1940), ULSC4E (BSA #1503, 1927-1940), the original Ulster Girl Scout knife and the official SeaScout Knife ULSC2A (BSA #1128, 1938-1941).






Still searching for an example of the pearl one... thought I had a nice one but once I got it in hand I realized quickly it was a fake Someone had replaced the scales on a #1502 with pearl. The seller returned my money no problem and appreciated me filling him in all the things that were wrong about the knife. He had a buddy that picked it up at a flea market in Texas and wanted the guy to sell it in his antique store. The guy was not that familiar with knives so I'm sure it was unintentional on his part.

Wonderful knives, I can see why you are attracted to them.

Real nice collection, Kevin!! You are a dedicated seeker of the beautiful!!
FYI, Empire also made a Pearl Scout!! Probably as hard to find as an Ulster though! This is my second one. I had a "place-holder" relic until I finally found this one!!

 

[Campbellclanman]

Nice bunch of Knives Kevin. Hey .... any Dwight Devine Ulster is usually a pretty darned nice Knife!
Wow Charlie - what a beauty that is
