Garddogg, that American Knife is a real looker. Beautiful scales.
I find 5 possible Mfgs in Goins. 3 in Connecticut, 1 in Florida and one in Newark, NJ.
Also 1 in Germany and 1 in Japan. Yours looks U.S.A. to me.
What a good looking knife. Ya never know what your gonna find.

I HAVE THE:
812 = MINI AFCK - WITH BLACK G10 SCALES AND MEDALLION INLAY
& THE 840 = ASCENT - SAME AFCK WITH THE FIBERGLASS STYLE HANDLES
-*** NEITHER OF MINE HAVE A MODEL # STAMPED/ETCHED ON THEM...I HAD TA RESEARCH EM

I THINK YERS WOULD HAVE BEEN G10 (SCREW CONSTRUCTION) SCALES AS "I THINK??" THE FIBERGLASS/NYLON TYPE ARE RIVETS

YER SCALES "LOOK" FOREST GREEN AND HAVE A COOL DESIGN ON EM'
AFTERMARKET SCALES LIKE THAT GO FOR AROUND $60-$100 ALONE

Got a few things at the flea market yesterday. Couple of pretty good old knives, an old Remington display case (board not original), a new Queen lockback whittler (price was right. Besides its a whittler!) and an old whetstone (needs cleaning) on a homemade folk art type base. Didn't get the sign (they wanted a small fortune for it) but thought y'all might get a laugh out of it so took a picture for your enjoyment.

Here's a few I scored at the flea market a couple weeks ago.

Yes, that is the price of that Ulster whittler...

I couldn't get my money out fast enough, and didn't bother to dicker. An excellent knife, the blades appear mostly unused, and there is still an etch visible on the main.

Wow glennbad, that is a great score on the Ulster whittler!!

That is one fat master blade.

Beautiful Ulster. Got a picture of the backsprings?

Glenn, great deal on the Ulster.
The stuff I run into down here I wouldn't stir paint with.
