[black mamba]

Lots of nice ones. Kerry, the ebony EO jack in post #17 is great-- I really like the round bolster at the pivot end.

Here are a couple more Camilllus knives. The Army Engineers pocketknife is a popular one in this thread.

This A.G. Russell Texas Ranger Toothpick is Camillus made.

Christian, that's a favorite 'pick of mine. Great stag and a nice, leaf shaped blade.

Thanks Jeff. I lucked into this one, most of the knives made in this pattern had red bone scales.

Here's mine. This was my dad's knife, cleaned it up some, and I carry it nearly every day.

My grand-dad's Camillus. I don't know what it is called, but it is a 4-liner, as was mentioned above:

Great knives, great thread!

Here are a few of mine. Nothing special, but 4 of my favorites nonetheless. 1) BSA Cub Scout knife- the first knife I ever owned, 2) BSA Whittler, 3) Electrician knife- one of many I've owned, but it seems I've given most of the rest away, 4) MC-1 paratrooper knife- maybe not traditional, but I think they started issuing them over 50 years ago.
