iKnife Collector
The online community of knife collectors, A Knife Family Forged in Steel
Scouts, Campers and Hobos
I know I'm not the only one. I love the Scout knives. I don't care if you call it the Camillus C-4 pattern, Boy Scout knife, camp knife or what have you; I think it is one of the greatest and long lived patterns out there.
Just about every knife maker in the world has made one so no matter what brand you collect you should have at least one Scout/camp/hobo. and if you don't have one and you go hiking, camping, fishing or some other type of outdoor activity what knife are you carrying in you pocket and what have you done with it?
Here is one of mine. It is the Case Scout Jr. (one of the few that probably won't be carried.)
This catagory now has its own Group

Jan, I've got three, all relatively inexpensive. Nothing like that Case Beauty. I also need to take a pic or two.

Here's my hobo. It's a cheap one but it's kept me eating while back in the woods or on picnics. Note: P38 Military can opener
