You Fellas are showing great stuff here in the Boneyard. After getting a little oil treatment thought would get a group shot of my Camillus boneyard . Most of these are old 4 lines with a few older stamps here and there .
Man you have some tasty bones there. Beautiful colors, what a group. Fabulous to go through and check out each one. Thanks for the post that keeps on giving.

Wow, what a fantastic group!! I am particularly drawn to the barehead pattern in the first photo on the left side next to the Scouts. with open blade pointing downwards...looks like a dogleg or perhaps a medium trapper? That one really gets my juices flowing.

Here’s a couple pics for you Q . It measures 3 and 7/8 long and a very early Camillus with Camillus stamped on the main blade. Not sure what it was called in the factory but some have called it a half or medium trapper and others refer to it as a Dogleg Jack . Either way is a favorite here and gets a little pocket time .
You take care over there and please send some of your nice warm weather this way .
Take care

Thought this up as a photo essay on different bones and jigging. Just tried to show the bones without shields. I admit it turned into an an eye crosser !
Many of us can probably ID the brands by the jigging but that wasn't the intent. Just a display of my favorite handle material. I love pearl, stag, celluloid, ebony, metal, etc.,but, for me there's nothing better than BONE. Guess I'm a BONEHEAD.

More to follow

Awesome pictures!! Great knives!!

THANK YOU Everyone.
Gordon , the bone here has been wiped down with a weapons grade oil ,left to soak for a hour or two . Then rub excess off with clean rag . Not sure if the type of oil really matters a lot . This older bone tends to dry out and have found this to work well .
Hope you all have a great evening .
