Re: WW2 Camillus survival machete
These will also be found marked Case or Cattaraugus. The handles with their sharp edges would be very uncomfortable for much use. A guy I know also has one marked Kinfolks but it is a rare mark on these.

You're right about the handles. I wouldn't want to use one for very long

Re: WW2 Camillus survival machete
The Imperial ones have an integral guard rather than a separate guard that can get lost.

Yeah Wayne, and the Imperial handle is much more user friendly.

Re: WW2 Camillus survival machete
I have the Catt with a guard but that Imperial looks way more user friendly. 
Pocket, fixed, machete, axe, it's all good!
