Dan , good choice ,that’s the handiest dang knive to have laying around . Don’t see many with that blade etch,nice touch .

Added a couple to my Camillus family today.
First, another Camillus 21 Pony Jack.2-13/16 inches closed, It has the long line Camillus tang stamp on the front side of the clip blade, with 21 on the pile side with 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. Here are the photos. I also added a Camillus 14 Serpentine Jack. It is also has the Camillus long line tang stamp on the front side of the clip blade with 14 on the pile side, with a pen secondary blade. The blades are tight, no wobble, and great snap. They have the original luster, but do have some staining and spots. The Handles are the Brownstag handles with a federal shield. The handles do have some slight oxidation, but I believe I can cure that with the usual warm mineral oil soak. Inside the blade well is clean with just some slight spotting on the springs. At the present time all I've done is oil the joints. Here are the photos.

Thanks for the kudos, JP. Now I have an excuse to get more of them!

And Smitty, I'll say it again: your pocket Jacks form a winning hand!

Thanks Dan, and I'm sure that good looking 27 will show up in the "What are you carrying right now" thread.

Nice!


Those things are addicting. I started with just a Colonial my Granddad gave me, as well as a 1980s Camillus, the first knife I bought online when I was 17. At last count, I had one each in my toolboxes, one in my compact toolkit, several users (not all Camillus), and a Craftsman (which I think is Camillus-made) 9560 and a WWII era TL-29 in the collection. This doesn't count Schrade versions, as well as assorted others like a Colonial.

I still need to add Xcelite (there's also a tang-stamped "XCELITE" version) and the two Channellock versions (there's both the typical black, as well as a sort of rare Channellock Blue handle version; which I've seen exactly ONE of).

Cody, didn’t know that the Channellock blue was sort of rare,just saw one on the bay believe it was . If I can find it will get you info if interested,think I put it on my watch list .

It's in my watch list for now. But I did get a seller offer on a Channel-Lock 27. For less than $15 out-the-door, I couldn't pass it up!

added a couple more to my Camillus family. Both came with the boxes, original papers, and sleeve. One is a 1997 Camillus Rimfire Classic 22LR6 Carpenters Whittler (a 72 Clone) and has delrin handles with the .22 rimfire brass shield. Next is a 1995 Camillus Rimfire Classic 22LR4 Muskrat, same handles same shield. Both have the Rimfire Classic etch on the master blades and the pattern number and year on the pile side tang of the master blade.

Thanks JP. I added the correct pile side photo. Just noticed I had two of the mark side posted. All good though!

Nice pick-ups, Smitty!

This Camillus Rope Knife or Sailor's Knife has a locking Marlinspike which is released by the bail.

Garry,

QS, I keep looking at those but have yet to pull the trigger. Yours is a motivation.
