Came across this Camillus pocket knife. Pretty rough condition. Best I can deduce it is a 1969 model. Can anyone confirm or know the actual model/year?
Tips on dissambly and restoration would be appreciated.
BTW, I'm new here.
Great forum.

Deluxe Premium Stock #69
Produced from 1946 to 1987
Your knife is probably made in the 70s.
The blades are badly lost. In the original, it looked like this.

Re: identify Camillus
Do blades and springs get like that from soaking in water for a certain period of time? They almost look brittle.
Pocket, fixed, machete, axe, it's all good!

Welcome to THE forum!
Looks like a nice project.

PS.... for some good repair threads and techniques, go to the "restoration and repair" area....
