The Camillus Cutlery Company was one of the oldest knife manufacturers in the United States. The company was started by a German immigrant named Adolph Kastor. Kastor moved to New York in 1870 and worked for his uncle Aaron Kastor in his hardware supply business, Bodenheim, Meyer, & Company, where he was put in charge of cow chains and later moved into the firearms and cutlery department. In 1873, the company restructured as Meyer & Kastor. In September, 1876, the company closed due to poor sales, but the next month, Adolph Kastor started his own company, Adolph Kastor & Bros. on Canal Street in New York City, where he imported and distributed German-made knives. In 1897, when the Dingley Tariff was enacted, the knives became too expensive to import, so Kastor sought a domestic manufacturer. In 1902 Kastor purchased a small knife manufacturer in Camillus, New York, and assumed control from Charles Sherwood. The company then had 20 cutlers who produced about 15 different knife patterns.

The Company closed it's doors after 137 years in the cutlery manufacturing business and sold off it's designs and patents to 3rd party manufacturers and these sought-after knives are produced to the exact same standards using only the best materials. These knives are in very short supply and most of the ones produced are bought by fanatical Camillus collectors.
