Charlie should be able to tell you

Tom Kalcevic in Knives Can Talk, states that tang stamp dates 1922 - 1939.

I have no idea how accurate that might be. Tom had access to Robeson employees, records and the spouse of Emerson Case when he was researching for his book.

That is a nice knife. Is there any etch remaining on the master? Most, but not all, NO-RUSTAIN knives were etched, "RUSTLESS-STAINLESS".
