ADDITIONAL INFO:      The Camillus Carpenter’s Whittler is a very popular and old pattern. When I first saw the Camillus #72 I thought that was a pretty weird design to be calling it a whittler because it was not the traditional whittler pattern. This has not affected its popularity because this same pattern has been made by a number of different companies and for large retailers like Sears and Wards. Schrade, Ulster and Imperial as well as a number of other companies have made this pattern. Aside from the various manufacturers and numerous brand names this classic pattern has hosted a number of different handle, including Rogers bone circa World War II, celluloid and other early plastics and then in the early 1960s it was clad in DuPont Delrin® in black, brown, light brown and even white Delrin.

This knife is in better condition than most, without a lot of wear to the blades. There is some spotting to the blades but it is minor. The matchstriker pulls on this knife really add to the looks of this classic Camillus knife. Perfect for your pocket or for your collection.
