... and being a Thomaston it is right up my alley of favorites 
... I did a fair amount of research for the the article on the Thomaston Whittler with Union label - there may have been a connection somehow as I remember that NYK was part of the PKBG&F (Pocket Knife Blade Grinders & Finishers Union) that started in Thomaston and ended sometime in the late 1910s... but I assume this knife was made after that time but not sure...Re: Knives of the Naugatuck Valley, Conn.

John, that is as good as it gets, it has everything going for it. It is such a beautiful knife, that it's a shame you don't really care for the Sheepsfoot jack pattern.
