Anyone know anything about knives

[Guest clsutton21]

I inherited this knife along with about 100 others and was wondering if anyone knew anything about this particular one. I don't know if it's actually old or just miskept and dirty. All I can make out on it is: "Japan", "Hightest", "Stainless Steel".

Thanks in advance!

I remember seeing those back in the 70's when I was a Boy Scout...kind of a Japanese Swiss Army Knife

[Guest Arko]

Yup. I had one.

Neat knife for a camper or a kid, but they were not really high quality. Stamped/Pinned parts, marginal steel. No real value, even now.

Nice memento though.

I think they used to be called "Hobo Knives". It had everything that a hobo could need.

they sell hobo utensil sets at walmart that look very similar

Yup, the Hobo knife, I've got a few of those.

If it were a japanese army knife, wouldn't it have chopsticks rather than a fork and spoon.....

I say, I say, I say you'd think so, wouldn't you, son?

They weren't too interesting. Case toothpicks, one-armed-man knife, a few boot knives, a set of bulldog knives(the set with pearl,mother of pearl, rough antler, smooth antler). This particular one was the only one I didn't know anything about.
