Boker - USA - SS girl scout knife -( never came across one of these before)
Camillus - USA - 1968 Military scout nife
Cornwall - USA - NY Cell - (Goins dates this tang at 1900-1920)

Just have to clean em up.
I have been looking for one of the Camillus knives dated 1968.. I carried one in my survival vest while flying night missions over the Ho Chi Mihn Trail in 1968. Out of Ubon Thailand. Missions were called Blind Bat missions in a C-130.

There are a few for sale on eBay as of this posting. Just type Camillus 1968 military knife in the eBay search box and there they are.

I have, I think, that same model Dexter (12" blade!). It is a monster of a blade. My great-Granddad used it to clean entire sides of pork off a hog. I mostly use it for light brush clearing. The steel in that thing is great.

Scott, amazing, just amazing.

So, I’ve had the lighter coloured 72 for a while now. It was part of a most kind bomb. The darker one was part of my antique show haul.
Then on Saturday, I awoke to this... ::woot::

Actually I bought the ‘baby’ from Jay at our knife club. It is a Camillus, but there’s no number. Anyone know what it is?
Little cutie is now living in my changepurse as an EDC.
