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.

Looks to be a nice piece Garry.
Like the size of these,have a user out in shop ,and the spike lock is a nice feature.
They seem to hold a edge well also

That is a great knife! I carry one when I am hauling my trailer around (I do some landscaping and hauling off junk) So I am tying down tarps etc. and using ropes. Sometimes I am cutting other things as well.... like my finger

I'm in the same boat. Before I bought that Xcelite 27 from you, I didn't know I wanted one...and now I can't get enough of them! Someday I'll get a 1, a 21, a 23, and who knows what else?

I am having trouble finding the stopping place as well. First 72's then rimfire series, then EO"s, then short lines, then no lines aaaagh........

You are welcome P.B. ... Although I have "Bone" to pick with you and Ripster, You guys are costing me money . Ya'll got me all fired up on Camillus pocket knives. Now everywhere I go when knife hunting, I am looking for more Camillus pocket knives to add to the stash, #76s, #1s, #27s, etc. etc. Worst of all I am hooked on getting more "Short-Lines" . That is money I could have spent more wisely... on Beer song and women...
