Post by Marshalstacks »

Has anyone ever seen this folder with the original case? Can't seem to find another anywhere online.

It looks like it says something on the tang,
and that something doesn't look like CAMILLUS. ::shrug::
Can you post a clear, closeup of the tang stamp?

What makes you think the case is original? It doesn’t look military to me. Is it in the picture? I can’t find it if it is.

I agree with Ed, I don't think the case/sheath is original or military issue. Cool knife though!

Knife fits in case perfectly. Could just be a well made custom?

Hard knife to find. Great collectors piece.
