U.....

You're welcome and thank you JP.
Believe me, I don't have a handle on anything having to do with cutlery (no pun intended).
I especially don't have a handle on anything CAMILLUS.

Today I add this to my CAMILLUS ephemera collection,
another CAMILLUS pocket knife box.

Very nice Skip.

I'm going to add this here. Mainly because I had never seen one before. For some reason back when these were being produced I don't remember seeing them in any stores I frequented.

But, here is a Camillus Duratool pack. This one happens to still have the Duratool in it.

Thank you Smitty.
That's a fine looking Dura-Tool you have there.
PLEASE be sure to post that here also:

Pictured is the C.O.A. for the Western (made by CAMILLUS) "Gambler", single blade, lockback pocket knife set. One of 750, first run, 5 pocket knife proof sets. Also pictured is the unopened Western pack of playing cards. I've also pictured the pocket knives or it wouldn't make much sense.

Today this got added to my CAMILLUS ephemera collection.
A 1967 catalog. It is complete and has 9 pages.

Dang Skip, just want to start flipping the pages, good save. Nice piece of history. That’s the kind of catalog to read.
Very cool you got the paperwork and cards with your Royal flush set. You keep on nailing it out of the park.
Thanks for sharing,take care out there .

Wow! I think everyone here wants to see all the pages .

I received these three CAMILLUS pocket knife sheaths today. They don't really qualify as "ephemera", but I don't feel like starting a new thread for them. All three are in EXCELLENT condition and required no special attention. I took a couple of pictures and here they are.

I have NO information on this item.
I will post more on this item when I receive it.

I think this knife suits this topic well .

Yesterday, these items got added to my CAMILLUS ephemera collection.

was mailed in, postmarked Sept. 21, 1972 and a general note to the buyer.

Thank you Smitty.

This arrived today. A small 1947 (year per the seller) ad for CAMILLUS 72
pocket knives. The year doesn't really matter to me.

This item arrived this afternoon and joined my CAMILLUS ephemera collection. It's a sealed deck of Western Knives playing cards. It is a full deck of 52 playing cards, it also includes a Joker and a Western Knives card, for a total of 54 cards. These were printed by the Hoyle Company in Saint Paul, Minnesota when Western Knives were being made by CAMILLUS. I didn't want to break the seal and open my deck. The last two pictures are NOT mine, they belong to the seller.
