Episode 56 | Charlie Campagna and the City Stock Knife
Charlie's with us at the close of summer. As he starts his 80th year he joins us to talk about his new knife called the City Stock Knife. Of course Charlie couldn't help but meander into what knives he's picked up over the summer. Lots of pocket knife history "tid-bits" were thrown out in this episode by Neal and Charlie for us to gobble up!
Neal even makes a bold statement on the "perfect" pocket knife and Mike tries to claim that the old Schrade factory sat on a toxic dump site. You guys listen and decide!
One note on this episode - Neal came out strongly against GEC's "faux pas" of calling a knife with a smaller bolster a "Barlow." While we all agree with Neal, we don't endorse him in fear of Bill canceling our podcast!
Thanks to all our listeners!
