Camillus bird & trout knife sheath ?

Post by Ripster »

Received this Camillus set w/ this sheath . The 1007 and 1006 are from the 60 s and are in decent condition. The sheath that they came in is my real question. Not much in fixed blades but thought for the price it will go in general collection. Before putting it in there would like to know if this is factory from Camillus or another company , or maybe custom . Looked through most of the catalogs in Camillus section ,found nothing . No bird trout combos with leather sheath . Then thought maybe Western ? It’s a very nice sheath and in very good condition.
Any info you could share would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

I'm certainly no expert on Camillus, however I can say I have not ever saw a factory Camillus sheath that looks like that. In looking through the few Camillus catalogs I have, it appears they usually pressed the "Camillus" name into their leather sheaths from the 1950s through 1980s.
