The Camillus subforum has been quiet for a while, so here's a new photo of an old favorite.

Great Camillus to own Dan. Electrician knife is a handy tool to have around and I love the etched blade on yours for sure!

Dan , Thanks for bringing the Camillus thread back to present.
Here’s one tray of 4 lines or older . There’s a couple of 1915 and older pieces in the tray . All function properly and are in good condition or better .

:) Just picked up this #72. ::nod:: a B.S.A. Camillus #72 ::groove:: Always a good day when you find a new #72 and even better yet when it is a B.S.A. model! I was an Eagle Scout back in the olden times, and still proud to have been a Boy Scout :wink: ... It has "LONG-LINE" TANG STAMP. This tang stamp was used by Camillus from 1960 to the late 1970s.
