Camillus and Schrade of Old Given Short Shrift Now-A-Days

[sXePhenomenal]

Just had been looking at these knives and wanting a thread about them. Thanks for the thread. Been thinking about getting a mint Uncle Henry senior stockman off eBay but dunno if I wanna pay $70 for one. Only ones I have is the whole Skoal Schrade collection that my dad saved lids for years ago lol


Thanks for reading

Since you said you only wanted the "branded" knives, this is all I can offer I have several Camillus but they are all Remington knives.

I appreciate that Camillus and Schrade made knives for other companies and I have some of them and bet your Remingtons are really nice but I wanted this thread to be about the Camillus and
Schrade branded knives. Thanks for posting your Schrades.

Real nice 33OT there, mine must've left the factory on a bad Friday or something but I live with it's flaws because it's sentimental and they don't keep it from cutting stuff.
I wish it didn't have it's flaws and I can't forget about them though, so I'll definitely pick one up I find at a yardsale or something.

Talking of under-appreciated, the GEC 15 is almost identical to the Camillus WW2 navy knife - a real beauty

You all are showing some great knives. Some tough acts to follow, but I'll throw a couple in the mix. -Lance

Ringed bolsters are always a nice touch.

Great idea for a thread, Ed!

Just discovered a Camillus Cutlery museum in a knife shop down in the village of Camillus. Since it’s about 5 minutes from my house, I have a feeling I’m going to be spending a lot of time (and money) there.

I hadn't heard about this shop yet. It's 20 minutes from my home. Thanks for the heads up!

Two 100th Anniversary USA Schrades, shame though it was the same year they closed 2004.
