Here is one I have, the C-3.
The cartridge is 30-06 Springfield.
The second blade is a gutting blade, used to cut up the hide of an animal without puncturing the organs, much like a gut hook is used.
I am not where this originated, though I expect someone here knows, but I first saw it on Puma knives back in the 1980s.

Oh, I forgot to show that the C-3 is also a double lockback.
I think this is the last of the Camillus Cartridge Series I have.
This is by far my favorite of all that I have seen of that series.
It is the .22 Long Rifle muskrat, the Rimfire Classic.
I guess it is my favorite in part because I must have sent about half a million .22 rounds down range when I was growing up.
I am also found of the muskrat pattern, so this knife is a win-win for me!

dale, i really like the muskrat(22LR-4), i never realized it was made in the cartridge series. the only one i have is the 22LR-6 whittler, and i really like it.

Dale and Gino, great looking knives. What a nice collection, Gino.
Dale, I also shot a ton of 22 as a kid. I loved every minute of it.

There is a 1993 Camillus .22 Long Rifle muskrat, the Rimfire Classic.
It was a trapper pattern. The price seems about right to me.

Not my auction & I am not bidding.
Just thought someone might be interested.

"A model #CCC8 was planned for the Camillus Classic Cartridge Series, but never went into production. This knife would have been a single blade lock back (similar to a Remington model #R1253) with a 250 Savage cartridge shield."
And I tried to paint it

Thanks guys. Great info. I was completely ignorant. I just love the CCs. If I had ever seen one, I did not know it. I will be on the lookout and certainly an idea for a custom rebuild.

Interesting read Gentlemen! I like Remingtons a lot so there´s no wonder I fell for this Camillus CCC-4. What keeps me wondering is how could Camillus go out of business when the were shelling out such quality knives that late?
