A 1949 CAMILLUS. I believe that this qualifies.

Wow!
That New York Hammer has got the best looking punch I've seen in a long time.
Is that a "kit" knife?

It's a carriage knife, the square hole is used to open the carriage door from the outside by the driver.

I've got this old beat up Eagle brand I want to put in here. Kinda nervy, I know, with all these nice knives in here.
But it is a whittler and it has a punch and I don't have too many knives with punch blades. 3 5/16" closed.
