Today I'm adding these three pocket knives to my collection. First, a CAMILLUS 72, 3 blade, swelled center, 3 5/8" closed, "whittler" pocket knife. Second, a CAMILLUS 72 "YELLO-JAKET", 3 blade, swelled center, yellow handles, 3 5/8" closed, "whittler" pocket knife. Last, a CAMILLUS "WHAT-A-KNIFE", all metal, single blade pocket knife. The CAMILLUS 72s needed minor cleaning, the "WHAT-A-KNIFE" didn't need any cleaning. I took some pictures and here they are. The "WHAT-A-KNIFE" is in the next post.

Man that's SWEET! I love that one Skip!

Man.....

Thank you Tom.

Here are 2 vintage Camillus knives, 3 1/8" closed. Do you know what years this Camillus stamping was used ?

[New_Windsor_NY]

Here.....

The top one, I don't know.
The bottom one, three line tang stamp, 1916 to the early 1930s.
(Per AAPK CAMILLUS tang stamp chart)

[kootenay joe]

Thanks Skip. There was also a 3-line stamping that was used for a 'couple' of years in early 1900's before the 4-line began showing up. Could these knives be from even earlier than 1916 ?

Roland ,those are 2 very nice old pieces of cutlery. They look almost unused and in very nice shape. Can’t help you with dating any further than Skip did. How long you had them ? Thanks for sharing

[New_Windsor_NY]

Thanks.....

I honestly don't know Roland.
