Should be 3 3/4" long.

The handle color is a bit confusing. Might be strawberry bone that has been exposed to light and has faded.

Can you describe the master blade tang stamp?

Charlie,
It measures 3 5/8".

The handle color is more of a faded brown than it looks in the picture.

Main blade:
ROBESON (straight)
Shuredge (script, underlined)
U.S.A.
The number is on the back of the main.

Spey blade:
ROBESON (arch)
CO.
CUTLERY

Punch blade:
PAT. APR.
25-05

The master blade stamp is the only one that contributes to dating a Robeson knife.

That one dates your cattle knife 1916 to 1939.
