Bought this neat 2 blade lockblade from Artsig1. It is about 4.5" long when closed, and has delrin stag scales. The fit and finish is wonderful. Both blades lock. Are the blades carbon or stainless? It has a 716 on the tang of the spey blade. This thing is like a trapper on steroids and is just about the prettiest Camillus folder I've ever seen. Not a pocket knife, it came with a horizontal/vertical nylon belt sheath. Anyone seen these before?

Thanks,

Steve

Steve,
That is, indeed, the 716S. The blades were stainless. Camillus also made a Yello-Jaket version as well as a Western version. Come to think of it, there was also a stag version. It was short-lived and discontinued around the early '90s. You are right, you know you have a knife in your hands when you are holding that one!
 
Thanks darlin! You're the best.:D It is really a superb knife. I've always been impressed with Camillus quality, but this one is just so.....nice. Can you tell that I like it?

Wow, a stag version would be incredible.
