I’ve gleaned (correctly or incorrectly) that the can opener places it pre-1945 (pre-Mirando opener) and the “right side-up” shield places it post-1928. Any insights? My apologies if this isn’t the place for such an inquiry.
Nice old knife! ::tu::

Found this UTICA, Girl Scout, "Featherweight" today in a pawn shop for $3. As it is with most Girl Scout knives, it has seen no abuse. I think it could be an early one as it has the UTICA mark and "PAT.APL". I like all kinds of Scout knives, especially these. J.O'. "
