Camillus are an old American knife name. BushWear hold two lines from them, both aimed at the larder rather than the pocket.
What is held
- Camillus 5 Piece Essential Hunting Kit - includes a fixed blade. A sensible starter set for anyone getting their first deer into a larder without wanting to buy five knives separately.
- Camillus Multifunction Game Shear - 8.75in, serrated blade.
Why a shear earns its place
A game shear does the jobs a knife does badly: cutting through the ribs of a small carcass, taking feet off, jointing poultry and rabbits, snipping through gristle where a blade would slip. If you are processing rabbits, pigeons or a lot of small game, it will save you more time than another knife and keep a good edge out of contact with bone.
