Item Description
Each is 1-7/16" long plus a moveable wire loop. Each has marbleized celluloid grips with his name and a baseball design on one side. Each at the base of the larger blade names the maker Camillus. The first with dark red color is an unused Mint example. On the back of the larger blade the original collector inked a number "#57" which is removable if desired. Finest example we've ever seen. Second knife has seen use with each blade somewhat worn down by sharpening and with minor wear on the grips although with most of the gold lettering of his name still intact.
