"Don,
It is possible it is a blank purchased and handled by JG. I doubt it is commercial made 100% with that marking"
"Thanks Jan. You know, I went down that path pretty extensively about a year ago, liking it so much, I wanted to find another as a backup, but it fit none of their designs or markings. Now, given it has no country of origin, I believe by law it…"

"Jeff, it may just have an association with kinfolk ? The best possible guess so far is a case casting sent to kinfolk ? Not an easy nut to crack identifying this one."
"Jan, unfortunately I’ve gone through all the charts I’ve been able to find and there are no numbers. I’ve been told it may be a case pattern shipped to kinfolk, but there’s really no information to go by though others like it…"
"I like your backdrop, from NW ALABAMA"
"Looks like my kinfolks 380 from 1930s to 1950s"
"The tangstamp shows the Hunting knife tang to have been used until 1932 https://www.casexx.com/Library/TangStamp.asp
