Campilon with twistcore.
Here is a campilon with what appears to be a twist-core. This is a very old blade, probably the oldest that I have run across. It has a lot of staining, pitting and some edge damage in one spot. Because of this the pattern is not easily seen. Blade is 30 inches long. I can't remember what this handle type is called, only that it is a rare kind. When this blade was new, it was probably pretty impressive. Iv'e had this camp for many years, and just yesterday I decided to clean it up and etch it. imagine my surprise!!!!!!.....Dave.
