That is a fantastic collection, Jerry! Sounds like you and John have been having some very successful knife hunting trips. Thanks for sharing, and God bless, my friend.
Thanks Tom!! We have had a few good trips so far together, he has a honey hole over there!! Gordyville is now over but Lee is going to set up in a storefront this month.
Oh how I miss the days of craftsman at sears! They always took care of ya! I never had one of those knives but they are some actual beauties! Nice collection of them you got! The rosewood and brass really pops! Thanks for sharing them! Hope you have a great week!!!
Thanks brother, these are definitely some top quality blades and to carry the Sears/Craftsman USA brand really brings back some great memories for me!!
What a nice set of Craftsman knives with the Rosewood covers & brass bolsters. I have a 95206 with the leather sheath but the rest of my Craftsman knives have jigged delrin covers or the rubberized cover like the one you showed. Thanks for making us all jealous😁
Nice collection of Craftsman knives. I in particular like the 3 7/8" Stockman and the lockback. I still have all of my Craftsman hand tools that I started buying when I got my first car. They are still my main tools today. They made quality stuff years ago!
That is one awesome collection!! I’ve enjoyed being apart of this in some small way 😊! Thank you again for the trade! I made a new slip for the Barlow and it’s in my pocket!!
I am to the point where i really need to get all these sub collections separated with what you're saying!! Thanks again for sending along a piece for this awesome collection!!
Hey Jerry that’s that I always mention……. I love seeing different knives I just love it…… you get tired of seeing the same ol knives over and over…….. I’ve only seen these knives a couple of times I’m not very familiar with them but they look like they belong in my collection 😂great pieces brother great vid thanks for showing them that was cool……. Stay safe out there 😊
@@jerseyknifeguy6382 thanks 🙏 very much Pete!! I have always enjoyed these due to how I accrued the very first one as a gift, just made it special for me!!
I bought a Sears craftsman 5 inch lockback ( bit different but still a USA made ) . Carried it 20 years ,,, I LOVED that knife,, it sits next to me now by my lazy boy chair.. as much as I used it.. it looks hardly used ( ceramic rods for most part) . Fantastic collection!!!!!! Thanks for sharing!!
@@bigjsknives If you wanna check this knife, I’m talking about : HT EDC SPOKE A LITTLE ABOUT IT ON HIS PART TWO CHRISTMAS .. u tube . It was and still is a wonderful knife ( seldom seen though)
They are excellent pocket knives. I have had one of the Sears ones from my dad for years and years. I slowly started picking up a few more over the years. Your collection of them needed that little jack knife and I am glad you were able to add it to your collection. We had a good time blade hunting that day. That gun & knife show is only a little less than three weeks away.
I actually went to an antique store recently and found the large Craftsman stockman. Most of the blades are there and the wood and bolsters look nice but somebody before me tried to sharpen it on a bench grinder. It's a user now.
@@jamesstork5544 You always have a good eye!! That is one thing i definitely give you props for, you are good at hunting and seeing what i seem to miss!!
Awesome collection brother, more than likely Camillus but Coleman Western was putting out similar items before Camillus bought them out and you know me I'm big on The Westerns! But yeah probably Camillus. Awesome stuff!
Man the Camillus made knives from back in the day were as solid as they come. My Frontier double eagles also made by Camillus at the same time look just like those just different numbers and tang stamps. Great video on a sweet collection!!
I grew up in Detroit and as a kid we would go to Sears and steal knives, fishing lures, hooks, 11-12 years old. Those are nice Buck looking replica knives.✌🏼
I remember shopping in Sears fir craftsman tools and the displays of the pocket knives....I have a couple....wonder if the Sears version was a gentleman's knife sold in the men's clothing and accessories items? Cool finds....
Thanks very much for checking them out!! I'm going to have to go thru my books to see if they did what you're saying with being a gentleman's knife!! Good possibility.
Nice Sears/Craftsman collection. I have a few as well. I started picking them up while I was collecting Imperial Frontier's, specifically the Double Eagle's. Except for the branding they seem to be clones of each other. I believe they were all made by Camillus.
Really nice batch of Sears knives! I, too, am from that era when the “Craftsman” name in a product meant something. I’ve got the lockback like yours. I also have the stag version, 95148, which I highly recommend to you (made in Seki, Japan, I’m gonna guess it’s a Parker).
Yup, Craftsman tools were quality good value tools. Have a bunch I got as a teen. I'm old enough to remember buying Ted Williams 22lr ammo at Sears for 29 cents for a 50 round box... still have a few boxes left of that too...
Wow!! Yeah, i was lucky to have one in a nearby town where we could get quality tools and outdoor gear, also just about anything you can imagine!! I really miss those days!!
@@HicksOutdoors thanks for checking it out!! I agree that they are definitely stout!! I should have weighed this compared to the 110 & lb7!! Have a great day!!
Nice collection you got there have you researched to see what you’re missing yet, if any?? My lone Sears Craftsman is Japan. I’d bet Parker but nice fat stag makes up for it a little.
Thanks very much!! I have books but haven't had a chance to go thru them for these particular ones yet. I know that they made the same knives for Sears and Craftsman both but gave them different model #'s, which is interesting for sure!!
That’s an awesome collection brother! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for watching!
Beautiful collection! Appreciate you sharing this!
Thanks very much for checking it out!!
Great collections of Craftsman knifes. The brass and rosewood look great together!
Thanks very much! I agree, they look fantastic together. 😊
Great looking knives!!! Love the look of that brass and wood! Craftsman tools used to be awesome!!
Thanks very much, they were top level back in the day for sure!!

Great group of knives, you’re right about Craftsman tools! And those knives are pretty slick! Thanks for sharing!

@ it was my pleasure to add to, such a fantastic collection .
Or vintage Craftsman Toolbox. Modify if you see fit to add glass for viewing.
nice..there was a time when Sears and Craftsman were top notch..Good collection BigJ!
Man, you ain’t lying!! They used to be the cream of the crop!!

Try Brasso they make it in Canada can get it here for 30 years nothing cleans brass better !
@@scottmcintosh2988 thanks!! That’s 1 product I haven’t tried, I’ll grab me some!! Thanks for watching!!

I have a few of the large lock backs . Pretty stout blades they seem to be slight more heavy then a Buck 110

Nice pieces brah. Are you sure those aren't made by Schrade? Schrade or Camillus definitely one or the other.
@@JC-su3jw the slipjoints are definitely Camillus but not sure about the lockback, it may be Schrade. Thanks for checking them out!!
I purchased one of the large Craftsman knives still in the original package years ago to add to my Buck 110 “like” knives…who manufactured??
Thanks very much for checking them out, i'd definitely say Camillus made the slipjoints but not sure about that lockback.
