Camillus Quail Unlimited knife?

Post by CampbellAr2 »

Found this in a pawn shop, but not seeing much out there.

Seeing some references to this being some sort of Schrade with a re-etch

Schrade has nothing to do with this. This is Camillus Small Lockback pattern #5818. This pattern was developed by Phil Gibbs (Camillus design engineer) in 1986 or 1987.

Many thanks! The Schrade bit sounded a bit odd to me, but was specific to this Quail Unlimited edition.....
