Syracuse Knife Company, Camillus NY -- One of the Kastor brands made by Camillus 1935-1940

Here's a PDF file of Adolph Kastor Tang stamps that might come in handy in the future. (plus if you like knives it makes some pretty interesting reading seeing all those tang stamps that were made by Camillus)

I've always assumed that to be true. Thanks for noticing that. I hadn't picked up on it. My EZ-Open also says Syracuse NY.
