A picture of the tang would be helpful. Along w/ a few more of the back and some close ups.
I can’t identify it from the photo. But the tang stamp will go a long way in helping.

Made in Japan, by Mitsoboshi, I think, during the sixties and seventies. I have the same knife, my father bought it new in the seventies from Popular Mechanics and carried it in his tackle box before he upgraded to a Gerber tool, then I ended up with it.

Yeah, back when Christ was a Corporal, they had ads for those in the back of outdoor magazines like Field & Stream and Outdoor Life. They didn't cost much.

Shoes not worth much either. I think they leave a trail of flickering lights when you're trying to get away. :D

:lol: :lol: ::rotflol:: ... Thanks Greg - I was thinking I was missing some type of connection ::hmm:: .. so the knife was stolen in the dark and the sneakers were used to track the "varmit" who stole it :D
