Not any info SteveC but I love those old military knives. That one looks to be in great shape as well. The Camillus add is a great reference piece as well. Congrats on the knife.

There are lots of the 4 blade knives as well as the 2 blade EO jack but this one with the long cap lifter secondary is one i have not seen before. What year is the catalog page from ?

It's from the 1946 catalog.
Re: Camillus WWII Army Post Exchange knife
Just wondering why it is being called a PX knife? Doesn't look like any of the known military pocket knives.
Re: Camillus WWII Army Post Exchange knife
That's what Camillus called it. Fourth up from the bottom in the catalog picture posted above.
