Nice acquisitions, JP.

Re: Show Us Your Camillus Knives!
Three very nice pick-ups. That could very well be the rigger's knife I had my eye on, but forgot to bid. If so, I'm glad to see it went to a good home. Soon I will see a Yello-Jaket (in Trapper form) in person.

Re: Show Us Your Camillus Knives!
Received this Black handled 33 Easy open yesterday from another EBay purchase. Bought it to give the old 4 line bone EO some shelf time,have carried it most of the winter,but when I dropped it on the floor in the shop,thought it’s time to put it away. The new recruit is tight,nice half stops,and a long pull which is a plus in my books. And blades have plenty of years left .

That old 4 line EO is just down right gorgeous. I bet the 33 serves you well.

Thanks fellas
Floyd that old 4 line has been a great knife. It’s a totally different feel than this 33 that has the composite handles.
Take care ,stay warm !

Re: Show Us Your Camillus Knives!
Received this 179 Stainless Sword brand today! The knife and stone are in unused condition. The knife had dried up lube and a coating on the blades ,cleaned it up and put a little good oil on the joints . The Box is a little worn on the ends but the clear cover isn’t cracked and paperwork is good .
Take care out there

Re: Show Us Your Camillus Knives!
Here are the only two Camillus knives I have at present time. Both are Trappers, pattern 717Y, made within 20 years of the bankruptcy. The one on the top is for the cabinet, and the one on the bottom has been carried. I will add more Camillus knives to my collection sooner or later.

Re: Show Us Your Camillus Knives!
Just recently I acquired this beauty. It's a CAMILLUS 60, 3 blade, 3 1/8" closed, milled liners, "split spring" whittler pocket knife. It didn't need any real cleaning. I took some pictures and here it is.
