WHW fpr 5/8/19: A Camillus 3 line knife & spoon combination issued by the Red Cross to troops during WWI. Apparently very few were ever used so they usually show up in pristine condition;as this one did.

For WHW 15 May: Probably one of the worst designs Blackie Collins ever did.While he designed some of the greatest and most unique knives I have ever seen,this one is a total disaster.
Called the Benchmark Rolox,it featured a unique opening mechanism whereby the top of the blade was lifted slightly and then was pushed open by pushing on the serrated top by the thumb until it locked open. To close,the lock bar on the bottom was pressed allowing the blade to rise up and be slid closed.
Two things were bad about this design: First it was very awkward to open and second;by putting the blade release on the bottom it invited triggering the mechanism by your small finger when putting a lot of pressure on the handle such as cutting through heavy material. This usually resulted in the blade sliding rapidly backward and grabbing the skin in between your thumb and index finger(don't ask HOW I know this!).
The knife was very well made and expensive(the wood handled model was over $60 back in the 1980's and the stag even more) and I don't think many were sold.I wound up with two of them(the other has Micarta handles).Strangely the other one has the false edge ground on the opposite side from the original one and has a shield.I am posting pics of both for comparison. Anyway that is the story.
