Thanks Tommy! I think that old Roger's bone on any knife is getting pretty scarce. You've got to snag those any time you find a good one.
Since we've got this thread fired up I should go ahead and post the pearl whittler I just recently won on Ebay and get some opinions on the stamp that is on the small clip. It doesn't have the line-dot-line under the curved Camillus. I think this stamp is described in Goins but I'm not sure.

......all the curved Camillus 3 line stamps(1915 and 1915-1918) in my goin's book have the dash, dot, dash, underline, there is none without it???..............another new mystery???............. .......................

........mistake!!...... .......it's 1915 and 1916, not 1915 -1918!!...... .........

Very nice! I really like those handles.

Added a few more to the Camillus folder, a three line Congress, steel bolsters and brass liners, tight and snappy, 4 1/8".

Sword Brand swing guard, nickel bolsters and steel liners. Really like the grind on this blade and the handles are nice...

Very nice Bob! That swing guard is in great shape,
