I had to look in the book case. I have a knife exactly like that I bought in the 70's, sometime from about 7th or 8th grade. I think it cost under $10.00. Mine is a Camillus USAF type, I lost my sheath and stone early on. I does have the early camillus markings dating it to the 1960's. It must have set in the Hardware store I purchased it from for a little while. You could still purchase single 22 shells from the store when I was a kid. I suppose they made more money on a box that way. I see all kinds of crazy prices for them on ebay and stuff.
The 6 in. blades are usually in the $200.00 range. Mine is a 5 inch, they hover in $80-100.00 range.

Believe it or not but that was a US Army issue blade for me in 1989 or 1990. I have 2 of them. I would have to peek at it again, but the knife has USN markings.

Even 35 years ago we scratched our heads at being issued a ww2 era relic,


It got used quite a bit because the period correct hollow handle commercial survival knife hanging upside down on the front of my LBE was my baby and reserved for special occasions only I guess

Was looking through my ammo stash last night. I accumulate a lot of odd ammo, some I've got guns for and some I don't. Getting down to my last few rounds of .350rem mag. I bought lots of brass and dies when I bought the gun 20y ago. I'm still shooting the two boxes of factory I bought though at the same time at $29. Looks like I'll be reloading for sure lol.......

I don’t feel so bad about the 2.50 per round I paid for my Whelen shells a couple of weeks ago.
