Scott, you sure hit pay dirt!
Wazu, that is one fine looking knife - superb example of Sheepfoot perfection.

Re: KNIFE FINDS OF THE DAY
Yo Scott - thanks for posting those other photos of those tortoise shell knives
- they even come with their own leather folding case with nice inner lining - nice
... Interesting blade on them (looks like the shape of a throwing knife to me) and what's the shell scale that folds out of the knife? They are cool but I have no clue what they are or were used for?
No doubt look old based on the tortoise shell and cool folding case...

Re: KNIFE FINDS OF THE DAY
No mark LB.....nuttin'
Thanks for the info stockman.
Appears to be real tortoise shell....and they fit snuggly in the case.
And there's a set just like mine that sold for $80.00 on the bay!

It looks to have been built when there was no question of getting a questionable heat treat.
The yellow delrin one I tried had a bad main blade.
I'm thinking of trying a Chinese Schrade.

Rummage sale find today for a dollar. Kershaw lightly used, unsharpened 1560 assisted opening side lock. I'm not much for tactical knives, but I like this one. ___Dave
