Thank you Pat.
Enjoy good sir!
Great Albers Pat.
Thanks buddy! I hope the clipped sheath is ok to show here, I should have flipped it over.
Yes, that’s weird. Are you positive the blades and one spring are stainless? If carbon steel is given a high polish, it can look like ss…Having a cigar for my last night shift this hitch. Camillus 23 I got a couple weeks ago.
It’s a sorta strange knife. I was under the impression they were all carbon steel, but both blades on this one are stainless. Oddly enough it seems that one back spring is carbon as it is patinaed to a motley black while it’s mate it shiny as a new nickel.
The two on the right are used and carried, and sport patina. The one one the left, even though it’s from pre-1950, was never used or sharpened, and being highly polished, could be mistaken for ss. 
Hide glue had worked for centuries, so it has passed the test of time.
Compelling pocket knife, Will. With a nice handful of stag.
Nice looking trio you selected today.
That is one big mariachi rattle Jeff.I saw T the Kidd’s 23 and changed today’s totes.View attachment 2321411View attachment 2321412
Sorry, but I have to show y’all this weird squash I cut this morning. My friend who gave me the seeds said it was some kind of giant zucchini, but I don’t think it’s any kind of summer squash. The skin is a super hard shell, like winter squashes have. I put it over my shoulders like an oxen yoke. It’s 4’6” long
I don’t see any signs it was ever disassembled, pins are round where they should be and polished flush on the bolsters and almost invisible. All of the polishing looks even and not over buffed like an unskilled hand will often do. I’ve cut several things that generally will quickly tarnish a carbon blade, a sandwich with mustard, an apple, pickle, etc and not the slightest color change. You very well could be right about it being an end times product, the main has a little back and forth play on the halfstop and the pen sits pretty low when closed.Yes, that’s weird.

But looking at the the spine, there is some peppering, aka: corrosion caused by off gassing of it’s nitrocellulose scales. I think that rules out stainless?View attachment 2321260
I suppose, being much newer, there’s a possibility yours was made during the Camillus End Times, and that could explain the mixing of types of steel. Any evidence that it had been taken apart? Like by someone replacing blade(s) or a spring?
Anyhow, it’s an interesting piece of Camillus history, and a super fine knife in the hand. I hope it serves you well!

Yeah, Vietnam era US Army surplus. I treat it with Otter Wax to make it waterproof si I have a rain hat.
I have a couple of current boonie hats that my son wore in Afghanistam that I’m fond of too. Very practical headgear, especially for those of us who’ve had a bit of skin cancer carved off our heads.

Curious about the taste of the squash. Normally when a veggie gets that size the taste is not that if a smaller one. Hopefully it has good flavorI saw T the Kidd’s 23 and changed today’s totes.View attachment 2321411View attachment 2321412
