most of these still had the factory oil on them, it took some hard elbow grease to clean em. i love them all as i hope you will.

....wow!!!,chetr, that's a fabulous collection!!!....
.....you should be proud of them. this is one series of camillus knives i've never collected, i always thought the shields were a little over the top, but the whole series as you've got them displayed looks fantastic!!!.....

thank you carr, i wasn't too impressed at first with the acrylic shields either. but after getting that 1st jumbo, i had to get the rest, then they started with more series, and then more.
i also have a few customs that were done by one of the factory workers there.
the snap on those jumbos is gator like. just like their remington repros and the nkcas. you have to careful when they slam shut that you don't lose a finger.

What a great collection of knives!
That must have taken awhile to put together.
Here is an ad. from a 1990 Smokey Mountain catalog. I bought my son the trapper with the bear.

I only have the #11 'Running Deer'. Received it as a birthday gift a few years ago. It's a hand full.
