Re: What is Your Latest Old Camillus? (pre-1960)
I got this one and sent it right back off for some new handles. It will look much better when it returns. I really like these 70's, I try to snag any that are in good shape. I have three now. They don't usually go for much unless they are bone.
This, like the other I had rehandled in ebony, looks unused and has factory edges.

Greg, very nice TL-29 with bone handles! I have been on the look out for one. Certainly much more scarce than the wood handled models in my observation.
Nice EE Cattle Knife Paul and who ever did the rehandle did a fabulous job Looks like it just came off the production floor!

WWI 4 1/4" Cattle Pattern, 4 line Camillus, U.S. SIGNAL CORPS Some black specks, never was etched... but retained a lot of the original finish. Stout knife,, I think if you closed that main clip on your little pinky it would amputate that rascal. Thanks for looking ,,,,
