Thank.....

WelderBob, that is a VERY G@@D
LKING piece of pocket cutlery.

[Ripster]

Bob. Wow another beautiful piece and a Sword Brand . That’s a knife and a half

This arrived recently in a group of pocket knives that I bought. This particular pocket knife was NOT the target of my purchase. It is a CAMILLUS, two blades, 2 3/4" closed, two tang stamps, pocket knife. The tang stamps are both 3 line tang stamps and that dates this pocket knife from 1916 to the early 1930's. The handles have some issues. The blades needed a little cleaning. This oldie still has life in it. I took some pictures and here it is.

You guys are showing some cool knives out there.
My wish list of older Camillus knives is growing! This Texas jack came in yesterday. It’s a short line. With steel bolsters and center liner. Outer liners are brass. I like the pocket worn bone handles a lot. It has a pin crack on one side that’s getting a little zap a crack to stabilize it. No wobble in either blade. Has some snap. Should improve with some cleaning and oiling. Anyone know anything about this pattern? I’m not familiar with it.

Nice old knife, great patina, that's gotta feel good in the hand!

[#goldpan]

Thanks Ike. It does feel good . After I clean it up and oil it. It going to get some pocket time!

Great piece Randy
If that doesn’t have a model number it’s very likely a early short line or the transition stages ? . That worn bone is nice
Classy old piece !
Merry Christmas to you and yours

Thanks JP! Merry Christmas to you and your family and a happy new year!

[WelderBob]

Nice one.. ..another pattern you don't see many of with bone. I had a yellow handled one years ago made in the 70's.
It's like the muskrats, did they make them pre-war ? Not sure the time frame on this add but your knife is on it.

[New_Windsor_NY]

You.....

Randy, that is a TERRIFIC LKING "short-line" CAMILLUS.

Not.....

Thank you, JP.


Merry Christmas To One And All.

Here’s 3 that picked up last few weeks with some bone on them. Believe all 3 meet the criteria to post here . Not well versed in the long lines but notice some have model number and some don’t on the pile side . Is it the Early 1950 s when they stamped model numbers on pile side of tang ? The info is here just can’t remember where .
Take care ,stay warm and safe out there.

Niiiice!!
