Show Us Your Camillus Knives!

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.

When I found out there was a Stockman version of the Cam-Lok , I just had to get my hands on one .
Haven't seen many of these . Guess I was lucky to find a clean sample .
You’ve got some great Camillus knives! That stockman is particularly nice. As well as the jumbo trapper you showed! Thank you! ::tu:: ::handshake::

After the factory closed , a lot of stuff hit Ebay .
And the prices were up ..
These two ( incomplete ? ) knives made it here to Oz .
The jumbo trapper had a Boo boo in the wood scales which I epoxied .
These were the last Camillus I purchased .

Thanks J.P.
I like pen knives with scissors because scissors are so useful.
My ideal knife would have a knife blade, saw blade, awl and scissors !

Received these 4 Camillus earlier today. Worked out a fair deal, the knives have been cleaned,buffed some. They’re all tight, no flaws on handles ,blades have been used a bit on a couple . Overall happy with these. The 3 blade, steel bolster, 4 line maybe the WW2 Army Air Corp piece. Any feedback on that would be great,the shield had something on it but can’t tell if USA was there or not,and did Camillus put this particular shield on this knife for the Air Corp??
Hope you all are enjoying your weekend
Take care ::tu::
