Here's a 3-1/4" in bone and a 2-3/4" in glitter celluloid. The "Stainless" line seemed to have good quality. Like the scales on yours. J.O'.

Here’s the 3 that are currently in my collection of Camillus knives.
Thank you . Happy Fourth of July weekend to you out there.

I don't consider myself an expert and I don't want to offend anyone, but I have some doubts about the authenticity of this knife. Moreover, on several grounds at once, although I may be wrong.

Hello,Vit. Good to see you posting my friend ::handshake::
What are some of your thoughts ,doubts, on the C.P.Murphy etched knife . Is it the aluminum construction? Do value your feedback . And if it helps us learn even better.

It would be interesting and educational to hear your concerns about this knife, Vit_213.
I wouldn't want anyone to be offended either. I think a good conversation could be had about the knife.
Many of us are here to learn.

The aluminum construction looks perfect for its age, but if the knife hasn't been used in all that time, I suppose that could be true.
My doubts are caused by the blades. Too sharp edges of planes and poor quality of surface treatment. Too good preservation of etching (considering age) with disgusting quality of printing (crooked fonts). I think that these blades were regrinded and re-etched. I have already seen similar knives on this forum, and they already raised doubts in me. It seems to me that this is the work of one man.

Having gone through the thread I find the etch to be quite similar on all the knives that have it.
The tang stamp is different in some cases in that some say "Stainless Cutlery Co., New York City.".
While other stamps say "Stainless Cutlery Co., N. Y. City".
Others may see it differently that me. ::handshake::

I'll repeat once again - I'm not an expert and I could be wrong. But the photo with C.P. Murphy etch aroused my suspicions the most. If all the photos were of better quality, then perhaps I would have fewer questions, or perhaps more :) .

Photos vary in quality from time to time on the forum. I think members try to do the best they can. ::nod::

It would be nice to see a few more good pics. From the top and bottom with blades closed . The C.P. Murphy blade etch and grind don’t look right for that frame and period that that stamp was used . Don’t remember Camillus using a Sabre type grind on a secondary blade like that but could be wrong .
Clark 23 if you wouldn’t mind and are reading this would you be willing to post a few more pics? Appreciate it .
