Old Camillus Electricians Knife

[mbjannusch]

FOR TRADE
This very nice Camillus electricians knife. The blade stamp says
Camillus_
New York
The Camillus company went out of business in 2007. This knife is definately collectabe.
The blade is in great shape, no chips or scratches. Blade has the snap it had when it was first produced, and locks up tight(no wabble).
It has a brass liner and pins, no cracks in the scale.

Will consider all Buck production knives, early models especially.

Nice knife! I am new here and is my knife a military knife and is there a way to date it? Sorry for posting here. Moderator please move it to proper place for me.

Thanks,

Me thinks that tang stamp was first put to use in 1976 however due to the rearward attachment point of the shackle I would guess this particular knife was built sometime later. Looks to me like the carbon steel version. Is the screwdriver blade etched with "TO RELEASE PUSH CENTER LOCK TO LEFT?"
