Rigger's knife: bid or pass?
Posted: Sun Apr 11, 2021 12:56 am
I've come across a rigger's knife. Here's a link:
https://www.ebay.com/itm/Camillus-USA-M ... 4028637646
And some pictures:
With a drastic lowering of the start bid, it'll now sell. I'm interested, but as I'm no Camillus expert, it's probably wise to ask a few questions.
The seller says the knife is in "VG condition." Having looked at the pictures, I'd agree. I see no cracks or chips, and the blade looks okay. Are there any areas on these that are particularly trouble-prone?
There isn't a photo that shows the tang stamp in its entirety, but it looks to be a later USA model. Is my guess correct?
Finally, what would be a good price for it, and didn't Camillus produce rigger's knives for Case?
Thanks to all who help!
