Scout Knife stamped on the shield. Sword Brand stamped on the mark side of the main blade, 4-line Camillus stamp on the pile side. Pre-WWII????

Re: sword brand
..jerry, I've got the same knife, except mine has the compass, same shield, only the master is 4 line stamped, and I remember someone posting that back when all blades on a knife were 4 line(1914-1941) they didn't stamp tool blades like a punch, can opener, etc, so I'm betting yours is the same vintage or a little later than mine which is supposed to 1914-scouts started in 1910, and this was the first Camillus model of the scout!!.............. ............

Re: sword brand
A #70 compared to a #72. Introduced as part of the Prestige Line in '73 it was called the 'Hiker'. They changed the name of the #70 to 'Woodcarver' shortly before the pattern was discontinued in '82 or '83.

Re: sword brand
Your eyes are just fine Tommy. The coping blade was broken and the shield was missing. I paid $1.35 for it (plus $3.00 shipping). I had a spare coping blade so I sent it to WB (whitebuffalo58) who worked his magic on it and it's now my carry knife.

Re: sword brand
Tommy, when you say handles are you talking about the entire frame (bolsters + liners + handles, etc) or are you talking about the scales (handles, covers)?

Re: sword brand
I've got a couple Silver Sword's ... one just like the one of yours on the bottom. To me, these seem like Camillus' budget offering - the blades are really chunky by comparison & not ground as finely as most other Camillus knives I've owned.Vit_213 wrote:The "Silver Sword" series was started in 1982. I have two knives from this series.
pffffft that's not a knife ......... now THAT'S a knife !! Crocodile Dundee
