Show Us Your Camillus Knives!

Everybody posting some nice-uns since I've been away. Here is one I picked up at a flea-market a bit back while I was on the road. A black handle Camillus swell end jack. It has the Sword Brand tang stamp on the master blade and the Camillus 4 Line tang stamp on the pen blade. It has the pinned Bow Tie or as some call it a propeller shield, with the jigged black composite handles. The blades are worn with scratches, but it has no play and some awesome snap and positive half stops on both blades. Makes a great little edc.

A Very nice 41 Senator. Blades seem to still have some of the original luster. I usually carry mine in my watch pocket if I'm wearing jeans.

Nice pile of Steelies!
The grind on the top knife is something you don’t see often on these .
The dura line knives are a great tool and very durable.
Have a good one out there .Oscar
