I wish that there was more information on UTICA Cutlery. I would say though, based on the can opener, that the knife is pre WWII, probably some time in the 30's. In 1937 UTICA used the Kutmaster tang stamp but no one says if they ever discontinued the UTICA Cutlery stamp.

Those old UTICAs really have some beautiful jigged bone handles ::tu:: That wavey pattern really floats my boat. ::tu::
