Camillus Small Lockbacks (pattern 5818)

The Camillus Cutlery Company was one of the oldest knife manufacturers in the United States with roots dating back to 1876. The company manufactured Camillus branded knives and was a prolific contractor for other knife brands up until its last days in 2007 when the company filed for bankruptcy.

i'll bet that SMKW Yello-Jaket was hard to find, Vit. You have an excellent collection of those little lockbacks.

I don't have any of this pattern, but I like it. I do have a 902, but that's a Promaster. I prefer something about this size in my watch pocket. The Santa Fe Stone Works models are beautiful.

My only CAMILLUS pocket knife that applies to this topic (so far).
It's a CAMILLUS, single blade, "King Of Hearts" pocket knife.

Crap. Almost had bagged a Craftsman variant for ten bucks, but well, I spent a bit too much time looking through the seller's listings, and missed out on that and a Santa Fe Stoneworks version of whatever the Victorinox Classic SD copy is.

Rather than post pictures of 15, small lockback pocket knives that fit in this topic
(includes the two that I previously posted here), it is easier to post a link to the pictures.
Here it is.
