Here's a Non Official knife that was cobbled together by a Camillus employee.

Re: Camillus Boy Scout knives
IMO he did a nice job of cobbling it together!
That is a beaut.

Wallace Rockwell ?
Re: Camillus Boy Scout knives
I would think it was done by Wallace.

Re: Camillus Boy Scout knives
....I have an old one that has the compass in the handle and the 4 line stamp which someone on here told me was the first model, this one looks like it may be the next variation with that type shield,probably early '40's, if it has the 4 line stamp???............... .............
Re: Camillus Boy Scout knives
There appears to only be 3 lines on the stamp

Re: Camillus Boy Scout knives
.....is the 3rd line NEW-YORK or CAMILLUS N.Y. ???...........if it's NEW-YORK, it's the 3 line stamp which would be 1915-1918,if the 3rd line is CAMILLUS N.Y.,it's the 4 line stamp- it's anywhere from 1919-1946!!...... ...............Webb wrote:There appears to only be 3 lines on the stamp
Re: Camillus Boy Scout knives

Re: Camillus Boy Scout knives
.......it's probably got u.s.a. under that , but it's hidden by the knife frame, so it's 1919-1941, but that shield is probably closer to 1919 than 1941........... ................Webb wrote:Camillus NY, is what is stamped

Re: Camillus Boy Scout knives
....I couldn't figure out why you couldn't read the 4th line, so I got mine out, which is 4 line also, and you can barely make out the tops of the letters with a magnifier, mystery solved!!!.... ..................
Re: Camillus Boy Scout knives
Lol, I looked a little jarder and can barely see it, thanks. I'm pretty excited to own this piece. I picked up a few treasures this weekend, this being one of them. Cheers!!

Re: Camillus Boy Scout knives
They were a whole lot easier to come by when I was one of the few that was looking for them. That one now lives at Philip's house (Treefarmer).
