Here is my Camillus Collection:

Photo #1 is all patterns. Top row which is cut off, is military, camp knife, 2 blade jack, Boy Scout and Cub Scout. This was my first Camillus. I've had it since 1945.

Photo #2 Whittlers, 72, 5 and SL6 patterns. 36 in all.

Photo #3 is real old Camillus. First 3 are not Camillus. Great Grand Dad's straight razor (Monarch 1888 - 1892) Colonial pen knife (Grand Dad's) #6333 Case (Dad's)
The rest are all 4 line or eariler Camillus. #8 is arched 3 line stamp 1902 -1915.

Photo #4 The two boxed knives are 100th anniversary Camillus whittler and stockman #47 lockback is at center top. The 18 1/2 " butcher knife was my Dad's. It's a "Village Blacksmith" 1898 - 1902. I re-handled this one.

it's in the 3rd picture-whew!!,you scared me, i thought i had lost a whittler, the empty space in the 3rd picture is now filled with a 4 line, brown bone electricians knife, no pattern no., but it's identical to the TL-29, except for the bone handles. i also now have 5 of the 4 line whittlers(with the wedge)-these are among my favorites!!!
