Can't quite make this out. Don't think it's Camillus judging by the tang stamp. Don't want to take the swing guards off. Anyone recognize this?

It might well be Camillus. I just found this.

Camillus' three line straight stamp.... used on knives manufactured from 1916 to the early 1930s
Nice old knife!

You nailed it Randy .
Did you notice the stamp is on the pile side . The Main side should have the crossed Sword Brand stamp .

Is there remnants of the Sword brand stamp on the other side ?

There's just not much there. If you look really closely maybe you can see the OR from sword?
