Mike, that's a very good looking 22LR1 pocket knife.
Here is another of the "Rimfire Classic" series you've got to obtain,
if you're going after the whole series (22LR6).
The whole "Rimfire Classic" series is pictured last.

Floyd, VERY NICE complete set of "Rimfire Classic" pocket knives.

Thanks Skip, I was shooting a lot when I got those. I don't shoot that much now but still love .22 lr.

Today I'm adding these three pocket knives to my collection. First, a CAMILLUS 72, 3 blade, swelled center, 3 5/8" closed, "whittler" pocket knife. Second, a CAMILLUS 72 "YELLO-JAKET", 3 blade, swelled center, yellow handles, 3 5/8" closed, "whittler" pocket knife. Last, a CAMILLUS "WHAT-A-KNIFE", all metal, single blade pocket knife. The CAMILLUS 72s needed minor cleaning, the "WHAT-A-KNIFE" didn't need any cleaning. I took some pictures and here they are. The "WHAT-A-KNIFE" is in the next post.

You stay safe as well.

Today this knife joins my "general" CAMILLUS pocket knife collection. It's a CAMILLUS, single blade, lockback, "King Of Hearts" pocket knife. It didn't need any cleaning. I took some pictures and here it is.

Very colorful Skip. Is it 3 1/2" closed ?

Man.....

Thank you Tom.

Here are 2 vintage Camillus knives, 3 1/8" closed. Do you know what years this Camillus stamping was used ?

The top one, I don't know.
The bottom one, three line tang stamp, 1916 to the early 1930s.
(Per AAPK CAMILLUS tang stamp chart)

Thanks Skip. There was also a 3-line stamping that was used for a 'couple' of years in early 1900's before the 4-line began showing up. Could these knives be from even earlier than 1916 ?

Roland ,those are 2 very nice old pieces of cutlery. They look almost unused and in very nice shape. Can’t help you with dating any further than Skip did. How long you had them ? Thanks for sharing
