This is a 1978-dated US military-issue pocket knife manufactured by Camillus, a company known for producing high-quality knives for the United States Armed Forces. This four-blade utility tool features a stainless steel constructionwith a textured metal handle marked “U.S.” The knife includes a clip-point blade, can opener, screwdriver with bottle opener, and a punch (awl)—a versatile combination designed for field use by military personnel.
Camillus was a primary supplier of pocket knives to the US military throughout the 20th century, with this specific model being issued to soldiers, sailors, and airmen during the late Cold War era. The 1978 date stamp on the tangconfirms its production year, aligning with the military’s standardization of multi-tool pocket knives. The design is based on the WW2-era US Army Engineer’s Knife, which was widely used during and after the war due to its rugged and practical construction.
This example shows expected wear from use, with some surface oxidation, blade marks, and handling wear, but remains fully functional with solid blade snap. A great piece of Cold War-era military gear and an excellent addition to any militaria or edged weapons collection.
