<p>Its definitely the block letter boker only stamp. With the crest and that stamp, it does look like it would have been in the 1930's. That makes this the oldest knife i have, next to a 1920's Case single blade hunter I got from Grandpa when he passed.</p>

<p>Around 1940-41, they added the USA underneath the BOKER stamp. There is some debate, but I believe the BOKER only tang stamp was used on folding knives only in the 1930s.</p>

<p>If yours is the same as the knife in the catalog, it is pattern number 1428, and was made from the 1930s up until 1981.</p>
<p>Of course during that time, it was made using various shields and many different handle materials: jigged bone, pearl, pyralin, and delrin.</p>
<p>That shield was only used up until around 1956.</p>
<p>Congratulations, at $3.75 you stole it!</p>

<p>The blades look like they have never been sharpened before. I wonder how many years it was made. That 1941 looks identical. </p>
