1947 Camillus Scout Pattern with Two-Piece Can Opener, Period Celluloid Scales

Description: Beautiful 1946-1947 Camillus Scout pattern knife with marbled burgandy celluloid scales. Three line tang stamp. Knife has not been apart, suggesting that the scales were original and used two wing type pins on each scale end that can be seen on inspection in place against the brass liners, consistent with this Camillus pattern, and a lower central brass pin through the spring center. The main blade appears only lightly sharpened and retains its factory edge and is full. A light rust spot is present and consistent with high carbon steel that is seventy years old and easily removed. The screw driver and bottle opener combination tool is the long style and appears unused, and the awl or punch remains sharp. The tang stamp and two-piece can opener is consistent of Camillus Scout knives during the 1946-47 production. This knife has been cleaned, oiled, and lightly polished by hand. The snap on the main blade and all tools is loud and crisp, consistent with a knife that saw little use or is functioning as new. No blade or tool wobble is noted. Celluloid scales are quite scarce, as most production knives used a jigged composite scale. I also will be listing a bone scaled utility or engineer knife that features a small pen blade instead of an awl, again a 1946-47 Camillus and quite scarce. You will not be disappointed with this knife. I ship USPS Priority Mail at roughly the in-person post office price of $11.20. This gets it to you in three days unless a delay. I can ship via USPS ground and will refund the difference- just ask please. Believe it or not- l just received a 4.9 shipping price rating from one customer- unbelievable for making no money on this service since 1999! I will send you a photo of the box before it ships. It will be carefully packaged.
