A little help?

Post by Good Old Luke »

Can anyone help me identify this small jack?
Scales are jigged bone. Lanyard/bale hole looks homemade.
Thanks.

I believe it is a brand, made by CAMILLUS, for Sears.
I could be mistaken.
NICE!

Camillus for Sears 1930's Here's my EDC. "High Carbon Steel USA" stamp. Faint blade etch "Craftsman -- Sta-Sharp" on the blade. Nice knives. J.O'.

That looks like a 2 blade jack issued/PX sold during WW2. I've owned several over the decades, with IMPERIAL, CAMILLUS, and HIGH CARBON stampings, I'm sure there are more brands out there. The gov't bought out pretty much everyone for cutlery supplies for the war effort.
