U.S. Camillus 1967 knife

Bought a cheap box of cleaning supplies at auction for the shop.  When removing junk stuff found this knife in the bottom covered up by some paper.

Interesting.   How is the master blade marked?

Hello, Coolford. Nice find, the Camillus Knife factory was not far from where I live. I am going to take a guess from memory, that may have been a military issue, Vietnam Era. Regards, Lou
