After passing up on the first Pocahontas Division knife I found (Boker Trapper, 1992 Safety Award), lost the auction on a second (a brand new 1990s Leatherman PST), I accidentally found this while looking for a Southern-States branded knife. It's a Scrimshaw-series based advertising knife (SC505), and was apparently a safety award in 1988. I think it uses the 8OT as a basis. I think it's a carbon steel knife, so probably going to need to be a bit careful with handling and have to keep something to protect it on the scales.
I offered $30 for it, and the seller accepted. Feeling it's a little bit high now, noticing what appears to be some corrosion on the bolsters due to the felt (can it be easily cleaned off?). I felt like $20 was fair after seeing that not long after I made the offer.
