The Other Brands

The Camillus Cutlery Company was one of the oldest knife manufacturers in the United States with roots dating back to 1876. The company manufactured Camillus branded knives and was a prolific contractor for other knife brands up until its last days in 2007 when the company filed for bankruptcy.

According to Levine, Tom Dunlap was the hardware buyer for Sears and Roebuck. He created the CRAFTSMAN brand in 1926.

Keep your edge sharp, otherwise you just can't cut it.

Wow, the Sta-Sharp Cattle knife 9525, what a great old knife. Sta-Sharp knives are hard to find in unused condition. Workmen bought them to use along with other Craftsman tools. That was back when Craftsman tools were often the very best available.

Here's my well-used Lipic. I bought it in this condition and I carry it every day. What a handy knife! Just the right size for a "small knife" in my opinion, and bearing three very useful tools : blade, screwdriver, and caplifter. I need to give it the spa treatment!

Please excuse the low-quality iPod photo...
