Hi All:

I have come into possession of a Camillus pocket knife via an estate sale that I cannot identify. Does anyone know anything about this knife? I cannot find any reference to it online and am curious about its origin.

Any help would be most appreciated.

Thank you!

Welcome to AAPK.

More likely pre-'41 with those celluloid handles. Is the 4-line stamp in a Serif font or Sans Serif? Serif was used more before 1941.

Knives with nickel bolsters cannot have been made during the war years since that metal was considered a strategic supply and not available to civilian companies for manufacturing. Knife is probably pre-war.
