I hadn't planned on filming or hunting for knives, but during a pleasant road trip with my wife and friends, we discovered this charming little store tucked away in downtown Senoia. Curiosity got the better of me, and I couldn't resist asking the friendly clerk if they had any knives in stock.
To my delight, she directed me to a glass cabinet displaying a dazzling array of vintage knives. Though they were a bit pricey, my determination to find a great deal kept me searching. And guess what? Luck was on my side that day!
Amidst the assortment, I stumbled upon a magnificent Vintage Camping Knife that instantly caught my eye. After some thorough examination, I suspected it was crafted during the World War 2 ERA due to the absence of brass liners and pins. The tang stamp, bearing the inscription "Made In USA," further confirmed my hypothesis.
Intrigued to learn more about the knife's origins, I delved into extensive research and discovered that it was likely manufactured by Camillus for Sears. Uncovering this hidden treasure was truly exhilarating, making it a Great Day indeed!
Join me in this video as I share the excitement of this unexpected find, explore the fascinating details of this Vintage Camillus Camping Knife, and embark on a journey of historical discovery. Whether you're a seasoned knife enthusiast or simply love uncovering unique relics, this video is sure to captivate your imagination!

The Knife Doctor has completed yet another pocket knife rescue. From what some would consider to be a junk knife, to a clean and function camp knife. I really appreciate the work that you’re doing to save these old knives. Have a great weekend! - Tennessee Smoky

Thank you for sharing this!! God Bless!

[@pearlssbu8749]

That first stores prices were deadly! I just about would’ve dropped dead if that were me!

[@theknifedoctor]

LOL!

[@skip9766]

Excellent! I agree with Camillus being the manufacturer. Colonial was a a major WW2 knife maker but I’ve never see them maker something like this with bone handle during the war.

[@boboneil949]

Buying a sheath then looking for knife reminds me of buying a old scope and then looking for a 600 rifle for the scope!

[@Jacob-ul7df]

Growing up I had quite a few pocket knives. So much so that I never saw the true value in them. I just saw them as "Use and toss after some time" tools. Now that I've grown up, I think back on all the old and cool knives I let go when I was a kid. I'm an avid collector and treat every knife I carry with respect. Keep doing what you do. Semper Fi.

When you first showed that knife, I thought, "No way is that worth $25 dollars." By the end, I realized how wrong I was. You got a great eye for a fixer upper knife. Looks great. I carry an old camillus electrician's knife that I love. It looks a little similar to this.

Great deal on that camp knife considering the prices on other knives. Cleaned up nicely. Senoia was a beautiful, quiet little country town when I was a kid in the 80s.... we raced over there often. Crazy how much Senoia has grown and that area is just completely over run with subdivisions today. SF brother and keep up the great videos.

Thank you!!

[@Traderjoe]

Because of you I went to harbor freight and bought the 3” bench grinder. Mine has a Dremel style flexible shaft and came with a stone grinder. They aren’t that powerful but it’s fine for what I need it for and was $49 and I had a coupon for 15% off.

Great Video !! You 're lucky there are good places to find used knives in your area, not too good here in eastern Ky. Our pawn shops in Louisa are SKY high.

[@rintintinman9223]

Well,,, I'm hooked,,, bought my first two , a Richards,, Sheffield England,,, ( looks a lot like the one you just restored) and another single blade,, made in Germany,, no brand name. Vintage knives are the bomb 💣

[@theknifedoctor]

Awesome!! Thanks for sharing this!!

[@randyblackburn9765]

Good find and good restore, that knife is old can tell by can opener style and color of bone . As for Imperial I’ve seen some very old ones with great bone and good quality.Some of these shops sell stuff for a lot of different vendors and vendor can set price but you got a deal on that one .

[@francissobotka8725]

The copper handled knife that was beautiful

[@propblast82nd]

The vintage Buck model 319 Rancher was made for Buck by Camillus and also had a spiral punch . Those were really a great pocket knife

[@theknifedoctor]

Awesome! Thanks for sharing this!

[@knifecoop001]

Nice camp knife, good job on refitting a bail. you might want to get a small swiss file set to file the pins to fit the bail, the files are small and easy to use on small parts.

[@theknifedoctor]

Thank you!!

[@anthonymurray8025]

I would say your right on it being a camillus that was my first thought too camillus did make novelty knives with just made in USA on the main blade

[@TimothyCibula-vh5ip]

Very nice camp knife came out really nice love it beautifull bone

[@jamesomalley4556]

Man over 6k subs your doing something right .

[@theknifedoctor]

Thank you!!

[@tedhart7708]

I'm sure that you already know this but, it seems that saddle soap to clean, and then mink oil to condition that sheath would have been better for the leather. That knife was a real bargain!

[@ProLawn-gf4jl]

Knife Dr. I am in Peachtree City. I would enjoy a knife hunt with you. Knife crazy here.

[@GODZclaN11]

Would you ever blast the inside of a folding knife with carb cleaner or other high pressure solvent cleaners to drive out grit? This Camillus sounds gritty. Thanks Doc

[@thooks1234]

You were a couple miles from my house.... Ha, I've never thought of going downtown and looking. I hate that you were here and we couldn't meet up.

Do you think case knives quality is good? I wanted to get a copper lock but hear they aren't worth it anymore. Love these kind of knives and ur videos are awesome

[@theknifedoctor]

Thank you! Look on eBay for the older CASE Knives. I hear the quality is slipping. I usually don’t buy the new ones. Always look for the older ones.

[@bobbyd4400]

Those little silver knives with a file at the front of the glass case are us made I got a couple but never knew the name of them and that sheath may fit the deer slayer possibility

[@theknifedoctor]

Thank you! It’s not a Deer Slayer Sheath. I have a few of those.

New to your channel, fun to watch! I was wondering if you have tried using an ultrasonic cleaner? Cheers

[@DavidPerkins-v5u]

How often do you sell the knives that you repair? I think you have a couple that I'm looking for

[@theknifedoctor]

I don’t sell the knives.

[@terrell48]

That opens up enough where you can get your Dremal wheel down inside the interior of the knife and clean that crude out better

[@justinjasper654]

I’m pretty sure it’s Camillus made. Sweet find for 25

[@theknifedoctor]

Thank you!!

[@lukevandermark71]

Saddle soap to wash the leather sir.. mink oil for your oil. I know you would like it. Give it a try if you like your stuff clean.

[@williamcrawley1055]

Been there done that.

[@terrell48]

Saddle soap is good for cleaning leather then use a proper leather treatment on it they make them available at saddle shops

[@randyzinn548]

What is that stuff you are spraying into the knife?

[@theknifedoctor]

Remington Gun Oil.

[@paulyoder865]

Harbor Freight.

[@TylerSnyder305]

I can't believe they wanted $25 for that cheap freebie advertising Victorinox classic knockoff. That one looks ideantical to one my grandparents church was giving out for free. At one time I had a handful of those terrible $1 things, from various local businesses that had booths at the annual farm show. The blades are practically made of soup cans.

[@deadhorse1391]

Is a WWII issue utility knife, made millions of them during the war. Many will just be marked USA In my experience most can be sold for $25-30 if in excellent condition. Hate to see an old knife like this over cleaned

[@jodycopeland1]

You need you a small center punch to renurl those pins

[@theknifedoctor]

The ball ping does the job. Thanks for watching!

[@oxyfee6486]

One of my biggest pet peeves at these antique places is how they put the price tag on their products. I found a collectible for my son, it was three hundred dollars, they put the price tag right on the viewing window of the box,. Totally ruined it’s value. I knew from experience shopping there that the adhesive on their tags would ruin it.

To me, if they commemorate a knife by engraving a name on it , it lowers the value - who wants a knife that says "I love you Sue, how do you do"??
