Today I add this pocket knife to my "general" CAMILLUS pocket knife collection. It is ONE of my HOLY GRAIL pocket knives. It is a 1949 CAMILLUS, single blade, 3 tool, brass liners, pocket knife. It is in EXCELLENT condition and didn't require any cleaning. I took some pictures and here it is.

Very nice Skip. That's a tough one in that year in that condition!

Thank you Smitty.

I already posted this in the "Camillus 72 Clones" topic. Today, this CAMILLUS 72 variation gets added to my collection. It is a CAMILLUS "SWORD BRAND", 3 blade, swelled center, milled liners, 3 5/8" closed, "whittler" pocket knife. I gave it a cleaning, took some pictures and here it is.

Tommy, I found this in my book, "600 SCOUT KNIVES" by JOSEPH RICHARD KERR.
It's copyright 1997.
I think it's pretty close to describing the above, two blade Scout pocket knife.
***** TF in the description means Tenderfoot *****

The Boy Scout 2 blade pen sold for $39 in 2006. I think this is much higher than most Delrin handled pen knives sold for in 2006. It was an expensive knife, equivalent to $50 now in 2020.

I paid $25 for mine here about 2 years ago, and it's new in box with paperwork. I thought that was a steal. Didn't realize they were that pricey when new. Thinking back, I do know the offiical retailer for the BSA here in my area, a sporting goods store, did have a couple.

Got this Buckmasters-branded Canoe for pretty cheap on eBay recently. I thought the Canoe was ugly and awkward before I got one, but I'm beginning to really like it. It's sturdy, but slim, only having one backspring. These don't seem that rare, so I may just carry this one, since I don't think the box is correct.


Had a thin, too big unprinted silver box with it--is that correct? Or a box seller had laying around? I've seen others sold, and they were in proper beige/deep red Camillus boxes.

This is definitely not a Camillus box.

Thanks. It was my suspicion that it was not. I don't think Camillus would dare put one of their products in the same box as a trade show giveaway flashlight.

Just finished recovering this Camillus 49P in a faux ivory material.
