This is my second "23", but my first short line "23."
It's a looker! I saw this one, or one that looked
extremely similar, paired up with a 1 in an eBay lot. Were you the lucky bidder?

Today, this pocket knife joined my "general" CAMILLUS collection. It's a CAMILLUS 23, 2 blade, short line, 4 7/32" closed pocket knife. This is my second "23", but my first short line "23." It needed a little cleaning. I took some pictures and here it is.

Very recently I added this to my "general" CAMILLUS pocket knife collection. It is a CAMILLUS 1, single blade, hawkbill, 4" closed, liner lock, short line pocket knife. Actually and surprisingly, it's the only #1 that I have. It isn't the nicest looking #1 that I've seen, but it isn't the worst looking #1 that I've seen either. It has a lot of life left in it. It needed cleaning. I took some pictures and here it is.

Great find Skip. That one looks good. Like yourself, I have also seen a lot worse. They were working knives and usually are extremely worn.

I'm really enjoying this thread. Some beautiful short lines.
I found this one floating in the bay the other day. I was surprised that they made a Timber Scribe in the short line era. But sure enough here it is. Not flashy but proud to have gotten it.

Thanks Vit, that is the first short line I have ever seen.
Thanks Phil
Papa Bones, I must say I was excited when I saw it. Thanks.
Appreciate it Dan.
Skip, I had just been admiring that #1 you got.
JP, I think I have a New York knife one as well but this short line really got my attention, Thanks.

My well used CAMILLUS #1, single blade, hawk-bill, liner lock, short line pocket knife. This has been a great EDC over the years. Now knowing more about the "Short-Lines" I wish that I had been a little gentler on it...
