Newly aquired electricans knife

[terryl308]

I just bought a "collection" from a local lady and this was one of the knives. Wondering how old it might be, I don't believe it has been used much if at all. It has black micarta type handle scales and has a tang stamp of "Camillus New York" and the screw driver blade has an etch on it which you can see in the photo, I know it is not rare but one in this condition is a little hard to find. Nice bail and brass liners.

You do not confuse?

Tommy, your "old timer's" is kickin' up again. That tang stamp was used from sometime in the very late '50s until sometime around (draw a big circle around) 1980.

Terry, congratulations. It's in VERY good condition.

Don't worry about it buddy. Happens to me all the time.

thanks guys, we'll go with the 50's-80's stamp. I believe that brownish yellow stuff on the master blade is still factory grease. sorry it took so long to get back to your responses, every now and then a guy gets a diamond in the rough. got any idea as to value? terry

Well, on ebay I would expect it to sell from between $15 to $25 or more on a really good day!

Congrats! Nice knife!
