What age is this keen kutter penknife?
I'm doing some work on a antique pocket knife for a friend, he sent a few gifts with it as payment, one was this old keen kutter penknife 0795 G does anyone know its age , are there any catalog pics online, thanks as always for any help, it's my first Keen Kutter and tbh probably my last as pretty hard to find in the uk

I would say your Keen Kutter Sleeveboard Pen Pattern Knife dates to the 1930`s and I believe was manufactured by Winchester.

Sellen's guide to Keen Kutter Pocket Knives states that your knife was in the Simmons catalogs from 1924 to 1929. I know of no online access to Simmons catalogs in that date range. I have a 1930 catalog reprint and it is not in there. As Desert Golfer stated, likely manufactured by Winchester.

Nice pick-up, Paul!
Pocket, fixed, machete, axe, it's all good!

Nice little pen knife. Congrats Paul!
I have never seen any KK knives for sale in Germany either but I do have one little KK Aluminium pen knife that I became Stan Wade (Ryan).
