Looking for Opinions on a Western Scout Knife

Hi folks. I'm looking at a Western Boulder Colorado scout utility knife on ebay and I'm just not sure if it's the real deal or not. I simply haven't ever seen one like it. (Of course there's a lot I haven't seen) I'm looking for input from those who may know for sure if this knife is on the up and up. Your help is greatly appreciated.

Phil

I have seen and owned several exactly like this one. Some have shields, some not. In fact there are several others on Ebay right now.

I have had several of these over the years that to the best of my recollection looked just like this one . It is a good original knife IMHO . Below is the best pic that I could find (From Sgt's 3rd Edition) . I probably have one somewhere in my "stash" but it may take days to find it .

Thank you gentlemen. I really appreciate your help. It makes me feel much better about bidding on that one. As I said, I just hadn't seen one like it so I was not sure about it.

Thanks again. :)
