I decided to put some new pants on it and clean it up a bit. Bone is goldenroot RJB, I picked it after I saw that great mod Dale did with it a while ago.

Streamline!
Like most Camillus Streamlines I have seen, the cell inevitably outgasses. Shame, as it is a nice knife with a great etch/stamping. I had one of those, pictured below...

Re: Streamline!
Excellent job Glenn!
I love those old Streamlines. I have a bunch of the knives in pieces. It usually takes 2 or 3 knives to make one good restored Streamline.
I often find the liners are cracked at the center pin from the off gassing celluloid. The light color celluloid is one of the worst ones I have seen for gassing. Although I have one dark colored celluloid Streamline that looks like it was made last year!

Re: Streamline!
Very nice Glenn. I love those old Streamlines. I had one that out gassed last year. That one was re-handled in moose antler. I still have one that sports celluloid and its still in great shape! I love the bone you used this one!
I love the bone you used this one!-
