I was thinkin' the same thing! That Alaska tuxedo is pretty cool. I'm reading a book about dogsledding in Alaska right now, so that one jumped out at me as well.
Who is the maker on that one...?

Tuxedo is cool but I think the Congress one is the most rare of the bunch.

The shell handled Hammer Brand knives were made by Imperial also.
Imperial acquired the Hammer Brand name after New York knife closed down about 1932.
