one of my dad's pocket knives

Gents, I figure this pocket knife was pretty common in the 40s. I'd appreciate as much info as I can get............my intent is to pass it along to my grandsons but figure they may enjoy it more if they have some info.

I think I've added a couple of photos to this note but not sure I did it right.

Thanks,

Greg

PS: I don't see the photos in the "preview" and I don't see any confirmation that they have downloaded. but i'll see if I can send anyway and see what happens.

Greg,

The replies were just me, bringing in the photos so no one had to hit the links. Are there any words on the tang area?

Greg...without any blade stamps or markings, it is next to impossible to identify that knife. The USA shield could come from or be put on anything. I would say, if it means something to you, then keep it and cherish it. It has lasted this long! You passing it along to your grand kids makes a story and increases the value tenfold! Make it worth talking about. :)
