Imperial and Craftsman Knife finds w/Pics
Nothing special just a couple of pieces of Americana from the 60's and 80's. I picked them up at the Valley Forge Gun show last month. $10 for the 95111 and $1 for the Imperial.
I know they're not collector items and were made in the hundreds of thousands if not a million but they have a certain allure to me so I thought I'd share. Imperial Kamp King I can only presume 1960's (might be older or newer) anyway made in USA:  Craftsman 95111 to go with it's little brother that I already had the 95282. I'm guessing ca 1980's for both: (again might be older or newer)  Craftsman 95282  Last is this knife given to me by my brother-in-law. It's marked Red Deer on the blade and Pakistan. (hey it was free and makes a good toss around knife)  Regards, Kobsw Last edited by kobsw; 04-22-2011 at 01:38 PM.. Reason: Spelling |

Re: Imperial and Craftsman Knife finds w/Pics
That Kamp King brings back happy memories; my first knife! And given me by my father in 1965... I dropped it into a river in South Carolina within the year and was inconsolable but have since learned 'that which you enjoy and use the most is the soonest lost or broken'.

Re: Imperial and Craftsman Knife finds w/Pics
I do believe that your Crafman's knives are Schrade's.

Re: Imperial and Craftsman Knife finds w/Pics
Camillus manufactured knives for Craftsman as well.
I'm looking forward to the start of the yard/garage sales this year. I live in an older suburb of Philadelphia, PA and have recently noticed that the old Imperial, schrade, Colonial ect.. knives, which seem to be everywhere, can be bought for like a $1. Come on warmer weather. Thanks for the comments, Kobsw |
