If it was a Winchester reproduction it should have the date stamped on it along with the pattern#.
The other guys are right as far as I can tell it is a fake.They did have a Xmes tree handle they used on the remakes but not on that pattern and they all had shields.
The pic is what the remakes are all stamped like."pattern#and date"
They also had hand hammered rivets and pinned shields.They are very high quality knives.

Well the stamp looks right.Is there a Pattern# on the back side?
There where some made in the 1970s and 1980s that where not licensed by Winchester and they where of low quality and made in Germany.

no pattern number anywhere, I was aware that it was a stockman pattern but failed to mention I was wondering if anyone knew what the number was. The oldies didn't always have a number on them did they?
