My first pocket knife was given to me when I was in Public School and is a Camilus brand (sort of a Boy Scout style knife) that was my Dad's US Navy knife during his WWll service. He broke the plastic (or Bakelite ) handles so the knife wares wooden slabs he hand carved and hand fitted. I would have posted a photo however I gave it to my son years ago and he now lives in another State so it's not readily available.

The blades are Carbon steel and have a nice dull gray patina on them, but the main blade is as sharp as hell. It also has the traditional U shaped swivel to hand from a belt clip and believe it or not we still have the original red box it came in.
