Nice to see you restore this without taking it apart. Most restorers would go to unnecessary lengths but your restoration technique is appropriate and the end result perfect. Thanks from the UK.

My dad was an electrician and had an old pocketknife like this. I always thought the tip of the second blade had been snapped off accidentally. I had no idea it was designed this way. The history of the tools is always interesting info. It brings the tools, designers, makers, and users to life. I very much appreciate the time and effort you take to include it. Thank you!

This brought back memories of my Father. He always carried this knife and used it so much that about every 5 years I would get him a new one for Christmas. When I found that this knife was made for the Signal Corps, I understood why he had such an infinity for it. He was in the Signal Corps through WW2. I've kept several of the worn-out knives and now I want to clean them up a bit and maybe start carrying one again to feel closer to him. Thanks for the memories.

This is the first video offer yours that I've watched. My first reaction: "Not the Dremel!". You are very skilled. I carried one like this for years with smooth black Delrin scales. It was built like a tank. I picked up a Klein Tools Brand at a pawn shop for $10 about 18 months ago. I cleaned and oiled it. It has plastic faux wood scales. The screwdriver works great for throwing sparks with a ferro rod. I live an hour from Camillus, NY where the factory was. My other favorite pocketknife is a Camillus U.S. , all stainless Utility (Camp/Scout) knife. It's in excellent condition. Never sharpened or used. Dated 1996 on the main blade. It rode around in my mother in law's Jeep until it died. She gave it to me. I hear people complain about how some old knives have such strong backsprings. When Most people worked with their hands, naturally their hands were very strong. Before lockbacks became widely popular, these strong springs provided an extra measure of safety. I had a 1970s Case 2 blade large folding hunter. When closing, it would have worked like a guillotine if a finger was in the way. I enjoyed your refurb.

Looks great and Camillus made a great knife as well! Im not sure how the newer ones are since they sold out but Ive owned a Camillus lever lock for at least 18 maybe 20 years and I love it used to carry it on the job. As a Flitz man myself I have a couple stops and one I added Flitz on the leather and it works great for the beginning and then go to the regular plain leather, Try that out sometime!

Nice clean up Mate, I always think these Electricians knives are a perfect balance of cutting blade and tool blade (I think you can also find them with a file built in to the screwdriver blade)

I've got a three blade Klein electrician's knife. It's got a curved sheepfoot blade in addition to the spear point and the screwdriver.

Cool, I don't think I have seen one like that before

I just restored a Camillus electricians knife that was made in the 60s but doesn’t have the TL29, I believe the blades are carbon steel. It’s one of my favorites to carry right now.

Cleaning up old pocket knives is fun! You could do a lot worse for an EDC!

Just last weekend I picked up the sister knife to this at the Stormville flea market. There is no model number but it is a Camillus . The difference with it is the screwdriver blade is a knife only and it does not look like it was reprofiled. Other than some patina and grime it's in good shape. The pin for the lanyard loop isn't exposed in the blade channel so maybe this one is newer than yours. I also got from the same vendor a small Ranger 3 blade pocket knife. Again, no model number and it's a little more worn than the Camillus but should clean up nicely. George

Old pocket knives are fun to collect and clean up!

They are rare, but Camillus did make some with a blade in place of the screwdriver. I don't have my books handy, but I think it was a long pen blade, thicker than on a smaller gene's knife.😊

No video in my feed is more welcome than a Magdad pocket knife restoration! Way to go , MD! The knife looks beautiful! One question: when you buffed the plastic scales did you use Flits on them? I notice you use a softer buff wheel.

Thanks! I'm glad you like my pocket knife projects. Chuck and I polished the plastic scales with Flitz. We like to use the softer wheel on plastic.

I think the plastic scales date it to after WW2.

I used them for 40 years they would last about 7 years and the flat blade would get real loose or break . Then i would get a new one . When i retired 3 years ago i got my last new one.@@357magdad
