LC   :tu:    :like:

You and Adam out did me. I bought 5 this month. Actually 7 but two of them wont be here till after the Challenge.     :D

You will need to return to this thread and share your new knives when they arrive.

I have no more traditions arriving that I ordered, only 3 Bucks as last Thursday they added some additional “web specials”.

And maybe a surprise that could arrive in a couple of weeks😜.

At least I will be better prepared for flea market trips and the next MEMORIAL DEAN CHALLENGE, when I survive another trip around the sun! 🫣
If I start and end the day above ground, it is a good day!

Hope yours is as good!

Worth it!

 :iagree:

I count it as a successful challenge when participants exit with more knives than when they entered    :D

Your last name is Case, isn't it?  :D

Adam     :tu:

 :cheers:

I guess I haven't completely lost control. Those lambsfoot knives you and Steve were showing made my trigger finger itch, but I haven't bought any  yet

 I understand :salute:

:rofl:

There really should have been some type of warning given before the beginning of the challenge to warn the newcomers what would likely occur. I am going to have to save up some money before this challenge comes around again  :ahhh

Day 31

Story

I thought this was funny and for some reason have never forgot it. July 10th of 2017 I got a GEC Calf Roper with Desert Ironwood. I carried that knife for a week almost every day. As I just loved the Ironwood covers on that knife. On day 8 I carried a 8OT and Dean say " What no Calf Roper"?
What? Enablers! Are you serrrrious? Where? I dont see any.

That screenshot reminded me of when I made up that Pointy Stick Badge as a joke and Dean loved it and to my surprise used it on his signature.  :D

This was indeed a great challenge. Somehow I was able to complete it without buying anything new. I can only hope Adam won't be sleeping in the shed!

Day 31 (little big bonus)

The little bonus is a Craftsman 95067. I bought it because of its similarity to the Schrade 33OT, the cool shield, the equally cool etch, and the long pull on the master blade. It sees occasional pocket time, but that will become more regular if I find a nice unused example.

The big bonus is a group shot of a dozen of my favorite traditional carriers.

@Steve -  That pointy stick icon on Dean’s page is cool.   
It would be really neat and have it made into a actual badge to honor Dean for this challenge. 

A Memorial Badge for his contributions to this forum and a badge of Remembersnce for those of the membership that carry forth his passion!  :salute:

Thank you for locating the discussion, it seems as if it was last week I was following the conversation and thinking how unique it was for Dean51 to make poke fun at the badge system.

I can't say for sure if Buck made any knives for Sears, but it makes sense now that I think about it. The recess for the shield isn't shaped like a Schrade, but more like a Buck.

It's a Camillus, they were making knives for Buck and Sears at the same time and used the same handles for some of the Craftsman knives.

It is possible that one off the vendors that made Buck contract knifes also made the SEARS Version s.

Camillus made a lot of knives for other businesses and knife companies. Albert Baer knife empire owned Camillus and Schrade.
