I like to play the Ponies and their clones.

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 added another Camillus 21 Pony Jack to the corral. It has the long line Camillus tang stamp on the front side of the clip blade, with 21 on the pile side and a pen secondary blade. It has the brown jigged( what Camillus called "Brownstag") handles, and was not produced with a shield. Blades are tight, great snap, no wobble, have the factory luster, but does have some spotting. Inside of blade well and springs are clean. The only thing I've done is oil the joints. I Here are the photos.

That's a good'un Smitty. I especially like the threaded bolsters. I'm kind of envious.

Agree with Jerry,the bolsters being threaded are a nice touch.
Smitty it’s you and one like this that got me down this rabbit hole,or in the Corral should say. They’re a fun one to collect. Just picked up a Catt and Ranger ponies,will get pics here soon.

Here’s a couple that picked up the last week or 2. A Catt, 2 blade ,with a Turkish ? Style main blade . The nail nick is so close to pivot pin it’s awkward opening. And a 2 blade Ranger( Colonial) with a Warncliffe type main. Main also has RANGER over ULTRA -HONE etch on it .
Both these got my attention cause of the Mains and ,there PONIES . So there’s the latest additions to the herd .
You all have a good one out there ::tu::

Received this Craftsman 95041 Pony Jack today. It has very little use, blades are full, no wobble, great snap, and just a few tiny spots and scratches. It has the white delrin handles with the "Sears Craftsman" shield. This is the first 95041 I've added to the corral. Mainly because most I have come across, even though looking good, always had some side to side blade wobble on the master clip blade. The seller said this one had no wobble and it was under $20, so I pulled the trigger.

This one has been posted elsewhere, but deserves a spot here, methinks. Probably made in the 1960s or 1970s. The master blade will have to be sharpened if I want to carry it, but I sure do like looking at it!

Received another addition to my Pony Jacks yesterday. I had to do a warm mineral oil soak & rinse, and a little cleaning. A Camillus Long line tang stamp 21 Pony Jack with bone Handles. Main clip blade has great snap, with positive half stop and no wobble. The secondary pen blade has very week snap. Mark side handle has a tiny crack on lower edge to the right of the rear pin. Pile side handle has a small crack at the center pin.
