The Mail Carrier Just Came

Well, actually yesterday but he left this for me. A Camillus #29 Trapper, probably from the early '70s before Camillus stopped pinning the handles on. Never carried, used or sharpened she's in factory condition. The #29 and the #35 are exactly the same pattern at 3-7/8" closed except the #35 has yellow Delrin® handles.

I'm really glad to have it because these don't come up often. I'm not much on the Trapper pattern but I do like the saber ground Turkish clip main blade.

Please feel free to post here, what ever goodies the mail carrier drops off at your house.

Nice Camillus. Nothing sharp in the mail for me these days. We have stopped shipping anything until next month I think. Boy, once the shop is done though there better be a new knife in my sights!

Steve this is the #35. I think you may like it. (The dark line along the seam between the handle and bolster is caused by the lighting)

Jan -- Since I'm a brand new guy, I don't know what your're talking about. What is it you do??

I apologize Jerry. I am in the process of moving so nothing is getting mailed to me (no sharp objects, sad face) My husband builds a knife or two so when we get there and the shop gets up and running the first knife better be mine to make up for a month of no new toys LOL

Thanks Steve. It may have been cleaned, oiled and polished up a bit after I got it. Came to me in pretty sad shape. Now I wish I had taken a before picture. She's in pretty good condition for her age (best guess the '70s).
