RED ALOX
these pix are to show a few things
difference in new and pocket worn RED
SHIELDS= new red is a pioneer.......one old red is a PIONEER and one is a SOLDIER!!!!!
on the 2 old RED ones....the shields are same...BUT to tell one is a SOLDIER the tang is DATE STAMPED
makes other a EARLY PIONEER
early pioneers and soldiers had BRASS LINERS
some had key ring liners.....some DID NOT
hope that helps a little
