Utica. It's a rare stamp, circa 1929-1930.

That's interesting. Too bad the seller did not post a detail of the stamp. I have never seen that mark.

The seller is a member since 2005, has zero feedback ::uc::

I would say Good Luck receiving the knife :roll:

Like Steve said, too bad no pictures of the tang stamp :(

Not sure what the deal is but the knife is up for auction again. The buyer left positive feedback???

I checked the old Utica catalogs that I have and the mark does not appear in them at all?? Any more info would be appreciated, Mike

Ok, here is the response from the seller.

Dear galvanic1882,

No the buyer was not able to get the funds on ebay so it has been re listed.

Good call dcgm4, I think you may have hit that one on the head. I looked and looked at that knife and just couldn't come up with any ideas, now that you mention it I've seen that "Good Luck" stamp somewhere only it seems like it was shown with a horse shoe. The knife certainly looks like an authentic old knife.
