As part of its 100th Anniversary Camillus issued two models which were essentially the Buck 301 and the Buck 309. The tang stamp for these knives was “Camillus/New York/USA” with “200” on the pile side for the three-blade knife and “100” on the pile side for the two-blade knife. The blade was stamped “100th Anniversary/ Limited Edition”. The term Limited Edition was loosely used, since thousands of these knives were made. Apparently the knives were sold in a tin, which also contained a medallion.
I have a knife that doesn’t match the above description. When I got it there was no tin or medallion and the tang stamp is “BUCK/309/USA”. There is no stamp on the pile side.
My question is, “Was this knife assembled at some later date using leftover parts, or was it part of the original run with the accidental use of a Buck stamped blade?”
