The Camillus Cutlery Company was one of the oldest knife manufacturers in the United States with roots dating back to 1876. The company manufactured Camillus branded knives and was a prolific contractor for other knife brands up until its last days in 2007 when the company filed for bankruptcy.

Latest pick-up
nice one dog, not too much cover shrinkage on this one, well done sir.
Thanks, B.G., J.P. Jerry D., Chicken-Man, D.L. and Skip, It was a happy day to find that baby... and me, a former Cub Scout, Boy Scout and proud Eagle Scout.
Everybody posting some nice-uns since I've been away. Here is one I picked up at a flea-market a bit back while I was on the road. A black handle Camillus swell end jack. It has the Sword Brand tang stamp on the master blade and the Camillus 4 Line tang stamp on the pen blade. It has the pinned Bow Tie or as some call it a propeller shield, with the jigged black composite handles. The blades are worn with scratches, but it has no play and some awesome snap and positive half stops on both blades. Makes a great little edc.

Here is my latest Camillus forward slant tang stamp model 67 it has a little staining and pitting, with the genuine Cabone handles…lol…but I swear it doesn’t look like it was used only once or twice…full blades looks like.

A Very nice 41 Senator. Blades seem to still have some of the original luster. I usually carry mine in my watch pocket if I'm wearing jeans.

A few of the Camillus ”Dura” line
Nice pile of Steelies!
The grind on the top knife is something you don’t see often on these .
The dura line knives are a great tool and very durable.
Have a good one out there .Oscar
