Just picked up this Keen Kutter K-1. I don't know about this brand. I'm guessing 1960s or so. K-1 stamped on reverse tang of the main blade.
Can anyone fill me in on this one?

One of my favorite stories is how the brand name "Keen Kutter" came about:

Sellens says it was in the 1959 Shapleigh catalog. Could have been made by Schrade or Camillus, or??

It appears to be a standard Camillus pattern...made by Camillus circa 1950's to 1960's.
