What a beauty! I’m starting to see why folks have such an affinity for the 72 pattern!!!!Papa Bones wrote: ↑Tue Mar 09, 2021 3:08 am Today I add another member to my Camillus 72 Clone and Craftsman Family It is a Craftsman 9494 Swell center whittler. It has the Oval Craftsman shield with the Crown around the word Craftsman. It is 3-5/8" closed, and has jigged delrin handles. I believe in the sears catalogs, this may have been the ones called Boneite, but not possitive. The blades do not appear to have been sharpened on a stone, but do have some age spots or spiders. I did not have to do any cleaning and have only oiled the joints.

This afternoon I added this CAMILLUS 72 variation to my collection. It's a CRAFTSMAN 9494, 3 blade, swelled center, 3 5/8" closed, "whittler" pocket knife. I gave it a cleaning, took some pictures and here it is.

Very nice Skip, And I wholeheartedly agree with Floyd. Also, just like that old pudding commercial used to say......There's always room For.... but in this case, More 72's and their clones.New_Windsor_NY wrote: ↑Sun Mar 14, 2021 12:54 am This afternoon I added this CAMILLUS 72 variation to my collection.

This is the latest addition to my CAMILLUS 72 variations/clones collection. It's a CAMILLUS 80 (only my 2nd "80"), 3 blade, swelled center, milled liners, 3 5/8" closed, "whittler" pocket knife. It has a small crack in the handle, at the top pin. It does not bother me. It received a minor cleaning. I took some pictures and here it is.

Here's my other "80."

JP, again, the "80" is a tough one to scratch off your "Grail" list.
AND you have the only other "80" (posted in this topic/thread)
that has the federal style shield.
NOW.....you have to find the "80" with the football shaped shield.
Here's the link to the other posted "80" with the federal style shield (6th pic down).
