Old Camillus pocket knife.

[captain spaulding]

I found this old pocket knife I remember having at least 10 years ago. I honestly do not remember how I got it and was just wondering if anyone has any information on this knife. I have no idea how old it actually is. My "shot in the dark" would be 50's or 40's. Thank you in advance.

It looks very unusual, so hopefully it would not have been made for many years.

I've seen examples of that knife before, too.

I believe it dates between 1941-46, according to one Bladeforums tang dating post.

Is there anything stamped on the blade besides:

Camillus
Cutlery Co
Camillus, NY

The only thing I did not mention which is stamped on the opposite side is two swords crossing. It also says "Spiral Punch" on the awl.

Thank you. I will give it a look through.

1941-46 is about right, then.

Do you have any info or a model on this knife? I can't find a thing.

That's seen some good service over the years

Here is the thread for confirming tang stamp dates; beyond that, no, I've seen the knife pattern before, however I have no other information on it. :/
