Camillus Granddaddy Barlow AG Russell Club Knife

Found this folder recently in an antique shop. I had no idea what I was looking at until I brought it home and did some research. This was the second in a series of club knives commissioned by AG Russell and made by Camillus. This is one huge folder with a 4" blade and is 9" opened. It's got jigged Delrin scales, really cool shield of the knife itself, and incredible snap. I believe these were made in the 70's. It's in great shape for it's age but is missing the leather sheath.
Nice find.

GREAT pick up Warren!

Neat knife....love the shield.

Thanks guys. I think it was the shield that caught my eye. This knife is built like a tank.

Very nice find Warren! I know these are very different BUT the similarities reminded me of this Remington. Similar.....&, of course, very different.

Duke,

It very well might have been the inspiration behind the design. Never had a Remington bullet but I know they are highly sought after knives. Nice one of your own there, thanks for the reply.
