Here is a recent arrival in the Codger Camillus Collection, a 1930's Fairmount jack with some really unique (to me at least) cell.



The more I see of these old Camillus knives, the more I like them. There are still several marks I haven't found yet, but I am looking. Every time I think I have the list (not the collection) complete, another one pops up. Until I started looking for them, I never knew most of the marks were Camillus knives, or knives imported by the Kastors.

Yep, I'm kinda new at this, but I have never saw (that I remember) bolsters like that. A really great looking knife.
 
The bolsters are called "tip" bolsters. Camillus made several patterns (#26, #80, etc.) with these style bolsters.
