That’s a Diamond Edge stamp. Diamond Edge was a brand name owned by Shapleigh Hardware of St. Louis. They didn’t make knives themselves but had them made on contract by various manufacturers including Schrade, Empire and others. Diamond Edge was their premium brand and was used on knives, axes, etc.

You can do a search here for “ Shapleigh” to learn a lot more.

How about a picture of the entire knife?

Thanks Ken I was thinking the same but I try and list things on my eBay site with as much info as I can and it did not look the same as the tang stamps on the Shapleigh .Im sending a picture of the knife it will be on eBay for parts

thanks Rod

I don't think they are any useful parts on an off gassed very used knife ? Knife mechanics looking for replacement blades want them to be full or nearly full and the liners are likely quite corroded.

Are you sure it’s not an early IKCO stamp .
They used the diamond as well and you can make out the K clearly .

Looks like an IKCO knife and stamp to me as well.

I agree...IKCO

I stand corrected. Thanks for pointing out the K, I couldn’t see it on the OP. Glad y’all caught my mistake.
