All About Pocket Knives

I picked up this Cornwall knife attached to a Silver pocket watch at a church auction about 20 years ago. The knife is in good shape with no cracks and the blades snap nicely.
I don’t know anything about the knife or much about Cornwall Knife Co for that matter. Can anyone share information on this? Thanks.

Nice little fob knife.

According to Levine's book, Cornwall knives were made by Camillus in the 1930s. Goins' book says 1900-1920. they could both be right, I suppose...

Doing just a basic, simple, AAPK search.

Thank you for the information.
I’ve done the same search but it’s usually about scout knives.
I’m a total knife newbie so any info is appreciated.
Can someone tell me the material the handle could be made of?

Probably celluloid handles.
These are old enough that they will most likely remain stable for another hundred years, but a quick search on AAPK will educate you on the substance and it's ability to outgas and destroy good knives.
I would not worry about it, but I would store the knife in a ventilated area, away from other knives and valuable items, as a precaution.
And enjoy the knife. It is a beautiful survivor!

Thank you.
This is such a great site for newbies like me to learn about knives. I love the research resources
