ADDITIONAL INFO:      I thought this was an old stock knife from the Camillus era of Western; 1991-2007. Upon checking the Western catalogs from that era I could not locate this knife. The ‘C’ under the model number on the rear tang stamp could indicate a manufacture date of 1979, in which case this knife is much older than I thought. No matter when it was made, it is a Western and it’s an unused knife. Add it to your pocket or add it to your collection today!
