Not Playing With A Full Deck.....

The Camillus Cutlery Company was one of the oldest knife manufacturers in the United States with roots dating back to 1876. The company manufactured Camillus branded knives and was a prolific contractor for other knife brands up until its last days in 2007 when the company filed for bankruptcy.

Recently, my trip to the post office produced this pocket knife. It now becomes my latest "card" to be posted under this topic or thread. It also became the latest "card" to be added to the "deck." It is a WESTERN, King Of Hearts, one blade, one tang stamp, 3 1/8" closed, lockback, pocket knife. The main blade front tang stamp says, "WESTERN (over) U.S.A." The blade does NOT have a half stop. The blade does have a GOOD opening snap and the blade also has a GOOD closing snap. Overall, this pocket knife is in EXCELLENT condition. It did NOT require any cleaning at all. I just wiped it off. This pocket knife did come with the original box and the paperwork. I took some pictures and here it is.

A few days ago, my trip to the post office produced these five pocket knives. They now become my most recent "cards" to be posted under this topic or thread. They also became the most recent "cards" to be added to the "deck." They are WESTERN, an Ace Of Hearts, a King Of Hearts, a Queen Of Hearts, a Jack Of Hearts and a Ten Of Hearts, one blade, one tang stamp, 3 1/8" closed, lockback, pocket knives. ALL five of the main blade front tang stamps say, "WESTERN (over) U.S.A." ALL five of the blades do NOT have half stops. ALL five of the blades do have an OK opening snap. ALL five of the blades do have an OK closing snap. Three of the five pocket knives have VERY minor cosmetic issues. But overall, these five pocket knives are in VERY GOOD to EXCELLENT condition. These five pocket knives did NOT need any cleaning at all.
I just wiped them off. I took some pictures and here they are.

Hey Skip, do you have any of the money clip knives from this series? I clicked on a link in this thread and saw them in the ad that was posted. The lock backs are all crazy cool of course, but Im curious about the clips.

I've gotta say my favorite looking is actually the ten.

The money clip pocket knives are from the "Maverick" series, not from the

Ah ok. There it is.

Holy smokes on that group you purchased and showed a picture of. I like to buy knives in lots as well. But my lots don't usually ship on a pallet like that. So much treasure.... ::woot:: ::groove::

This morning, my trip to the post office produced this "lobster", pattern or style of pocket knife. It now becomes my latest "card", although not part of the "regular deck", to be posted under this topic or thread. It also became the latest example to be added to my "card" collection. It is a WESTERN, King Of Clubs, one blade, one tool (a file), one tang stamp, 2 1/8" closed, money clip, "lobster", pattern or style of pocket knife. The main blade front tang stamp says, "WESTERN+ (over) U.S.A." This is my second "card" pocket knife that is from "The Maverick" Series, and NOT from "The Gambler" Series of pocket knives. My other "card" from "The Maverick" Series (King Of Hearts) was posted, under this topic or thread, back on Tuesday, March 12, 2024. The main blade does have a SOFT half stop. The main blade does have a VERY GOOD opening snap. The main blade does have a VERY GOOD closing snap. The file does have a SOFT half stop. The file does have a VERY GOOD opening snap. The file does have a VERY GOOD closing snap. Overall, this pocket knife is in EXCELLENT condition. This pocket knife did NOT require any cleaning at all. I just wiped it off. I took some pictures and here it is.

Yesterday morning, my visit to the post office produced this pocket knife. It now becomes my most recent "card" to be posted under this topic or thread. It also became the most recent "card" to be added to the "deck." It is a CAMILLUS, Ten Of Hearts, one blade, one tang etch, 3 1/8" closed, lockback, pocket knife. The main blade front tang etch says, "CAMILLUS (over) Made in the U.S.A." The blade does NOT have a half stop. The blade does have a GOOD opening snap. The blade does have a GOOD closing snap. Despite having a few cosmetic issues with the handles, this pocket knife is in GOOD condition. This pocket knife did NOT need any cleaning at all. I just wiped it off. I took some pictures and here it is.

Very recently, my trip to the post office produced this pocket knife. It now becomes my latest "card" to be posted under this topic or thread. It also became the latest "card" to be added to the "deck." It is a CAMILLUS, Ten Of Hearts, one blade, one tang etch, 3 1/8" closed, lockback, pocket knife. The main blade front tang etch says, "CAMILLUS (over) Made in the U.S.A." The blade does have a WEAK half stop. The blade does NOT have an opening snap. The blade does have an OK closing snap. This pocket knife does have a couple of MINOR cosmetic issues with the handles. This pocket knife is in VERY GOOD condition. This pocket knife did NOT require any cleaning. I just wiped it off. I took some pictures and here it is.
