Callimus 67 Stockman

Wouldn't at least some of the later knives be using the same steel as the Cold Steel "Carbon-V" folders? I remember reading that it was just a matter of branding, but that the steel on the Camillus-branded carbon knives was molecularly identical to those CS knives (they also used the stuff in some of their modern folders).

It's excellent steel, though rather quick to take corrosion if you're not on top of things and live in a high-humidity area. ::paranoid::

deltaboy, it's always a fun romp through history going through the old Camillus catalogs. You see how some of the patterns evolved or changed and it helps greatly with the dating: http://www.collectors-of-camillus.us/Ca ... talogs.htm

Should be an excellent knife, just grabbed my first one, looks to be a little used short line bone handled. Don't seem to see the bone handled ones all that often.

A short line, bone handle 67 in that condition, what more could a man ask for. Congratulations. ::tu::
