Re: camillus #72
Today, I bought this Camillus 72, 3 blade (DUCKS etched on the main blade), swelled center, black bone handles, "whittler" pocket knife. I now have two thirds of the Camillus 72, "black bone handles" trio. It appears to be in excellent condition and won't need any cleaning at all. When I receive it, pictures will be taken and posted in the appropriate location(s).

Skip that's one of my favorites. Take a close look at the etch. It's a real work of art.

Excellent Skip. Is the one you are missing the plain black one? That one is hard to spot. Glad for you.

Re: camillus #72
It has black jigged handles like the duck one and like the Harley Davidson one but no blade etching and I think the shield is oval. I've got one but you have to be looking to identify one. The jigging is a little different than the delrin ones. Maybe I can remember to post a picture later.carrmillus wrote: ↑Wed Feb 19, 2020 10:15 pm ...my memory is going fast, but I don't ever recall seeing the plain black version!!!!........................

I got this end of days 72 with the .22 shield but none of the blades marked as part of the rimfire series.

In addition, the pen and coping blades changed places. I think this was done after the closure of the plant.

Hey Skip, kootney joe just posted 8 #72's on the buy/sell/trade thread. They looks really nice, and very reasonable prices too. Just wanted to give you heads up.

I fished the elusive plain black bone out of the bay the other day. Pretty much new. I was surprised again that I was the only one bidding. One I had really been looking for so glad to get it.
