This is a CAMCO U.S.A. Electrical Lineman's (TL29) knife that is in very good condition and still has its original BAIL. It measures 3.75" long closed and has a 2.75" long Spear point blade and a 2.75" long Flat Blade Screwdriver, which is held firmly in place when open by a LINERLOCK, which is what made it a favorite among Electrical and Signal Corp. Linemen. The blades are made of CARBON STEEL. It is a MODEL 229 and has a NICKEL SILVER BOLSTER and a BRASS LINER & PINS.

The handles are made of smooth black DELRIN, and along with the brass pins, help date the production of this knife to between 1960 and 1975. It has not been cleaned or polished by me and is in as-found condition. Please see the pictures.

The tang is stamped CAMCO in an arch over U.S.A., with the model number 229 on the inverse side. The CAMCO U.S.A. brand was introduced by CAMILLUS CUTLERY CO. in 1948 when the company shifted to civilian production after making millions of knives for the military during WW2.
