Camillus 714Y "Muskrat"

Post by Ridgegrass »

Here's another knife I was given for singing for a deceased friend. Art Bell died at a very young, 89 in January 2021 and his wife, Florence had already given me a large, Case, bone Stockman. She found a couple more including this Camillus, "Yellow Jacket" Muskrat, absolutely mint, in the box, with the warranty paperwork.
It's so nice to have a remembrance from a good friend, and, Muskrats are some of my favorite patterns. Thanks Flo, R.I.P. Art. J.O'.

A very nice knife for fond remembrances of your friend.

That "Yellow Jacket" series was a great run for Camillus.

I have heard many things about it. A yellow coat with a really enticing musk.
