Very close to a 14. The 14 is 3-3/8" closed. Same frame & blades.

I'm impressed with this one from "90". It has definately seen some hard use but feels indestructable.
I plan on using this one.
Love all these old Camillus's

Re: Show Us Your Camillus Knives!
Pulled a 'yoink' off the 'bay yesterday. Under 3 minutes left on the listing when
I found it, so I shot from the hip with a bid I fully expected to miss.
Two minutes later and this 'un is headed my way

Re: Show Us Your Camillus Knives!
Ok I just posted this on New Arrivals but it fits here also so here is what picked up yesterday. Its a 4 line camp knife with what I think is a Peach Bone handle. This is a great solid knife with good snap and very little wear. It had a little red paint on it which I managed to get off and maybe it could use a little more spit and polish but for $18 it was a bargain!

Re: Show Us Your Camillus Knives!
So I'm on a roll and have a lot of catching up to do so here are few more. Here you have a TL29, Rope knife, and a small two bladed knife with Delrin handles.

Re: Show Us Your Camillus Knives!
Looks like a #14. Rough brown (my designation) handles (I'm not sure if that's very early Delrin or some other synthetic) . Made in the late 1950s - 1960s. Looks to be in very good condition.bladeguy58 wrote:Opps I left this one off!
The one you called a rope knife is a Rigger's Knife (if the marlin spike locks) or Yachtsman (if the marlin spike does not lock). Given the shape of the bail, I'm guessing Rigger's Knife.

Re: Show Us Your Camillus Knives!
Rigger's knife, I couldn't think of what it was called! I actually had another one but my friend is a sailor so I gave it to him for a present. About the handle on the #14, I've always wondered what the material was myself. How'd you like that Camp knife for $18?jerryd6818 wrote:Looks like a #14.

Re: Show Us Your Camillus Knives!
I think what you're calling a "Camp Knife" is actually a WWII Army Air Corps Utility Knife and I like it a lot. For $18, I like it even more.

Re: Show Us Your Camillus Knives!
I thought might have been something like that but in looking up some other patterns from other makers I found one like it that and it said camp, thanks for the correction!
