Anyone know where old Utica Cutlery Co. catalogs could be found?

Goins says Utica started using "Kutmaster" in 1937 and eventually that name replaced all other markings.
I have a leg knife with that curved stamp.
Nice knife.

I have a copy of an old Utica Catalog 1921?? The markings on the knife are the earliest one used and am not sure how far past 1937 the made them. I can't for a minute think that just because they changed the name they did noit use all the blades up that they had stamped in stock!! If you tell me the size of the knife closed I will see about getting the pattern number for you.

That would be great. The closed length is 3 1/8". I am guessing that this is a "senator" pattern and if this pattern is in the catalog, would you compare the blades for shape, or see if there is a pattern with this combination of blades. I'm not sure if the secondary blade is sharpened down to what it is now or if this blade shape is specific to a purpose. Thanks a lot, much appreciated.
