The post by @[email protected] got me thinking about knives I’ve had for a while.

This is my first knife, older than I care to discuss, that I had as a Cub Scout. I had thought it lost forever until we moved in Nov 2021 when I found it in a box.

Still in surprisingly good shape and the backspring in decent working order. Needs a sharpening but other than that, I could give this to a Cub Scout today. (Being a knife guy all my kids already have Scout knives so, I can keep this one for me.)

How about you? Do you have any knives from when you were a kid?

    Definitely take good care of that since there won’t be anymore Camillus knives. I have one of the last ones that my union got us as gifts for graduating our apprenticeship.

      A good point. I’m looking at cleaning it up a bit but beyond that, now that I have a knife collection and at least a singular place to store them, it won’t go missing again. :)
