My Camillus slippie

[The Moose]

Such a nice little knife bought it at Boy Scout camp about 2005...

Nice 'n Sharp

Beautiful piece of cutlery

Great knife too bad theres no more Camillus, that was a truly remarkable company.

I agree - you got a good one there. When I found out Camillus was closing, I went down to the BSA store here and bought several of this type, for my son and others in the den. Total tragedy, what happened to Camillus.

thx - cpr

You have to go pretty far to beat a good scout knife!

Looking at that Camillus brings back so many memories, its so similar to the one dad gave me when I was 12. Like the time Dave, Ev, Bobby and me were trying to get across this creek on a skinny log...

I have an ulster that looks exactly like that . Mines plastic though, yours looks like bone from the pic. I wonder if they were made in the same factory. It's one of my faves. It's also the sharpest knife I own.

(edits mine) As far as I could find out, they were all jigged delrin (plastic). When Camillus closed, I looked for everything made by them that I could get, and I couldn't locate any in bone.
