Nabbed a '64

[Sean]

I've been looking for one of these stamped with the year I was born, and lo and behold,
one came up on Ebay.  Quite nice condition too for it's age.  A '64!

[sappyg]

good for you.

[Sean]

Thanks Sappy.

Glad you found one Sean. It does look to be in good condition.

[Crouton]

What a cool knife that is.

[Sean]

Thanks David & Jeff.

That looks like its in great condition! 

and that's a good idea....

Mmmmm I need a '62' 

[Turnstone]

Looks great, and almost like new! Congrats on this great find!

[MultiMat]

Sean that looks a ripper mate  .

Looks like a blinged up Camillus Demo knife  .






I chased a 71 Vic Soldier but it went for $61us  , bit rich for me.

[Sean]

Thank you all. 

Sparky a '62 you should be able to get if you keep checking ebay.

Multimat,  Those are some nice ol' Camillus!    There were a few companies
out there who were supplying those type/style of knives.  They are almost identical.
The older knives can fetch a pretty good dollar at times for sure.
This one I got for cheap.

[MultiMat]

Sean I have not seen one as nicely polished as your one 

[Sean]

Thanks, it came a bit dirty but that was it just dirt and not rust. 

[Nonicks]

Great find and idea, I need to get in line for a "63

[nuphoria]

Lovely

Nice

The Canadians also issued the same knife made by Camillus...they designated it the C-5. They are identical except for plain scales without the "US" stamping. It was discontinued when a Gerber multitool became an issue item.

 That's a really nice one! Imperials are not as easy to come by as the Camillus one are. Great find!! I have 3 Camillus knives: 1978, 1988 and 1993.

Thanks Specgrade.
