I agree!!
My old Cub and Scout knives. Camilius New York on the tangs.  Lots of use out of the Cub Scout knife.
I went thru a lot of SAK Tinker models. Used an orange Bucklite my senior years in scouts.

Cub Scout, Webelos, Eagle Scout 1993  Troop 201  East Texas Area Council   ( thanks mom and dad , I know scouting wasn't cheap )

Thanks you guys!  I looked for one for a long time, and although paying for a NOS in the box specimen was painful it was totally worth it.  I absolutely love this one!

I watched this auction close. I had no idea it would run that high.

Very nice!  Family heirloom pocketknives are the best.

Thanks Myron and Aloha.  It is a Girl Scout knife.  Girl Scout knives are nowhere near as prevalent as Boy Scout knives.  Unfortunately nowadays, most the Girl Scout knives I’ve seen are cheaply made Made in China no names.

That knife has seen a lot of use in, but now usually sits in a drawer because I don’t want to lose it.  I still remember when my Dad gave it to me.  I had just gotten back from a week at Girl Scout camp where we had to take a pocket knife because part of it was teaching us knife safety and my Dad sent me with one of his.   When I went to give him back his knife, he asked me to show him what I was taught.  At the end he gave me the knife.  That was almost 40years ago.

I love the memories that certain knives bring back! :like:

So incredibly cool, Sos24!   My kiddo and I spent seven summers in a row at Boy Scout camp, and he has all his SAKs from those years that I gave him.  Fantastic memories, and I'm glad you have your own of your dad, too.

Thanks again for sharing your story and well done for hanging on to that treasure.  I hope you have someone else to hand it down to someday!

Best,

Myron

I have a niece who will get mine from my Dad some day.  She already has a Girl Scout 100th Anniversary knife that I got her.  My Mom is now a troop leader and I bought her five to give to different girls in her troop who she thought would appreciate them.

Time to bump this thread and see if MTo members have added any cool scout knives lately.  Here are two of my favorite Camillus scout pattern knives.  The BSA-issue is an Ulster, but was produced by Camillus.  The other is a US-issue Camillus Model 1760.  I love the family resemblance.  :)

Let's see your scout knives!
