Keen Kutter K505 spey barlow dates?

[jon_slider]

does anyone have catalog info listing the Keen Kutter model K505 spey bladed Barlows after 1920?

1917 Catalog, note they call jigged bone "STAG", and the last line lists Spey as a blade option.

So far Ive been told Sellens says it is from 1905 to 1920.

I note the synopsis for the book by Sellens says:
"This comprehensive book contains pocket knife shown in Simmons Hardware Compay catalogs since 1905."

I don't own the book, and don't know the answer to these questions:
regarding 1923-1929 Winchester catalogs… did Sellens look at those?
and regarding the 1930-39 Keen Kutter catalog.. does he look at those too?

or did he limit his search to Keen Kutters in EC Simmons catalogs between 1905 and 1920 only?

I believe that Sellens looked at as many Keen Kutter catalogues as he could find from 1905 to 1940 and even later, as he gives dates into the 1940's in his book, for some knives.

Excellent info! Thank you very much. Then it seems the K505 with EC Simmons tang stamp is indeed limited to 1905-1920 as he says. That tang stamp started in 1904, even though the K505 also exists in the 1899 catalog, mine cant be that old due to the tang stamp.

Much appreciated!

here btw is an 1899 catalog with the same knife
