Re: Show Us Your Camillus Knives!
Today I added this knife to my general CAMILLUS knife collection. It needed minor cleaning and it received it. I took some pictures and here it is.

Re: Show Us Your Camillus Knives!
This is not my first CAMILLUS Eagle Scout pocket knife. However, it is my first CAMILLUS Eagle Scout pocket knife with the box. The knife is in near mint condition and needed no cleaning. The scissors appear to be dirty or rusty, they aren't. It's the lighting. The box is in excellent condition.

Re: Show Us Your Camillus Knives!
I couldn't resist the price, so I bought another CAMILLUS Eagle Scout, single blade, 2 tool, pocket knife. There is no box with this one. It didn't need any cleaning. I took a few pictures and here it is.

Re: Show Us Your Camillus Knives!
I didn't make it to Eagle either. But I do like these little knives. I know it's been said more than a few times, but I'll say it again. I do wish that you could post pictures. Maybe some day........

Re: Show Us Your Camillus Knives!
I received this earlier in the week. Interesting story, I actually bought it from an Ebay store that deals mostly in ladies products and makeup. It was listed as a new vintage Camillus 3 blade knife at a BIN price that was way below what these have been going for. A Camillus #1047 Boy Scout 3 blade swell center whittler. The pictures show it just as I received it. The only thing I've done is oil the joints.

Thank you Smitty.

VERY nice looking 1047, Smitty.

Don't forget to post it in the "CAMILLUS 72 Clone" thread.

Re: Show Us Your Camillus Knives!
Thanks Carrmillus. I had asked the seller if she would check to make sure she didn't have the box. It was hard for me to believe someone had this in as good of condition without the box close by.carrmillus wrote: ↑Fri Aug 28, 2020 5:03 pm .....great find!!!...looks almost new!!!!!.................![]()
