Floyd and I think along the same lines. I have an ebony Camillus farmers jack with a little of that etch visible. It's good to see what it used to look like whole.
That's my favorite bone handles.

Wow I really like that. At the end of the day I will always love a stockman style knife.
To explore strange new worlds.... to seek out new life and new civilizations. To boldly go where no man has gone before.

Found a Camillus 3 line easy opener, decent shape with remnants of an acid Easy Opener etch which is not as common as the Sword Brand etch.

Thank you Dimitri and that you all, Dimitri your example is very nice, that's only the third one I've seen with the easy Opener etch, most etched ones I've seen have Sword Brand.Miller Bro's wrote: ↑Thu Jan 23, 2025 1:06 amNice looking knife John![]()

Has 2 small pieces of bone missing but will leave that and the seller adjusted price so it came home to join the Camillus collection here .Miller Bro's wrote: ↑Thu Jan 23, 2025 9:59 pmThanks so much John!![]()

John and MB . Those 2 beautiful EO s you have , are they 3 and 3/8 closed or 3 and 5/8 s . The older 3 line has more of a teardrop frame than the 4 liners and short line ones and is longer. I didn’t realize that there was a length difference . Was aware of the change from teardrop to a more rounded frame . So thus the reason for my ?
Thanks .
