Went shopping while my wife was having some more tests done at the hospital and found three knives.Of the three this one is the strangest.
I'm sure most of the members on here have at least one of the tiny EZ opener knives that were put out by Imperial and other makers from about the 1930's on and if not you have at least seen one. I have a bunch of them both single and two blade and shell handle and solid bolster.
This one is made by Fairmount Cutlery Co. of New York which I believe was a Camillus brand.What struck me about this one is the shape of the handle. Instead of being the standard balloon end with a more or less straight back this one is shaped like a miniature dogleg jack.Has anyone seen one with a shape like this? I'm putting up some pictures showing it next to several different ones I have to show the difference in shape of the back part of the handle.

Ray, good pictures. They do show how your new find has an odd curve to the frame. I have not seen one like it.
