Title: Black & decker drill box
Post by: john k on January 12, 2020, 07:43:41 PM
Found this very nice B D  drill case aat the Habitat store.  1/4 inch drill was gone, but found some stuff to fill it.   This MAC feeler gauge is the smallest I've  ever seen,  sizes almost worn off.   The steel screwdiver might belong to a machine tool?  No threads on the handle even tho it looks like one of those nesting screwdrivers.   The jewelers saw is not missing any pieces!    Very unusual, most I find  are missing things.  I wonder how many of you recognze this plastic hammer,  it is very special use,  wanted one  and had to shell out $3 for this example.  Also found a very old 2 lb. ballpeen hammer but in great shape.  The pocket knife after I got it freed up turns out to be a Camillus,  all the blades intact..   Worth a buck,  for sure.  Also a new roll of plumbers tape.  Blew almost $12,  on all of it.   Could of done better, maybe,  but I been good all week.   Comments?

 The hammer kind of looks like a bullet puller for safely removing a bullet from the shell.

Yep, bullet puller is my guess, too.

Sure looks like a bullet puller.

Is the knife a Camco or regular Camillus scout like say a #99 ?
Still worth $1 either way I'd say if it's not too worn out.

Couldnt find a  Camillus site.  Blade is stamped Camillus, Utica, 2 blades, 2 openers,  not really any wear, or oversharpening.  Reminds me of  the Boy scout knife.  More I carry it,  better it works, also dividers are brass.

Camillus is still a name, but as a company they sadly kicked the bucket back in '07.
Never heard of such a stamp, and it's not listed on AAPK.
As far as I know they were pretty much always in Camillus new York.

Here's my #99

Does this have two knife blades or a blade, awl, can opener , and flat driver / caplifter ?
