Re: Old Boxes found containing mint knives
This classic Utica Featherweight Pat. Apl. Girl Scout Knife is in the original box and came in many variants of handle materials. Never carried, used or sharpened. It is dated around c1936 and one of the first Official Girl Scout Knives available to the girls.
Very good condition considering it's over 80 years old.
