Rick
If there is a line above and below Camillus? Which is what I think that I see. Then it dates between 1989 and the close of the doors in I think 2006.

Hope this helps. ::tu::

Pic will expand when clicked.

I have a new Camillus tang stamp coming. ::ds:: ::ds::
I have not seen a Camillus tang stamp like this.
I believe it predates WW I.

Mark side tang stamp is Sword Brand withe the crossed swords.

Pile side tang stamp-
CAMILLUS/CUT. CO./N.Y. U.S.A.

Does anyone have info on the Camillus Cut. Co. tang stamps?
Does anyone have another one?

I will post pics when it arrives! ::nod::
