I HAVE A CHANCE TO BUY A CASE KODIAK AND WANT TO DOUBLE CHECK THE INFORMATION TO SEE IF I HAVE IT RIGHT. THE STARS ON THE GUARD MEAN IT WAS MADE IN 1960-1965? WITHOUT THE STARS IT MEANT IT WAS MADE 65-70?IF I HAVE IT RIGHT THERE WERE A COUPLE VERSIONS OF THE BLADE ALSO? BOWIE? THEY MADE SOME REALLY NICE STAG HANDLES ON THEM. HOW LONG WERE THEY MADE?

The link below should give you a better idea of dating the knife, cannot help on the years they were made though. They also made them with Buffalo horn handles, I do think that the blade although may of had slight modifcations they all looked very simliar.

THANKS RUSTY 1, THE LINK HELPS ALLOT. THAT ALSO ANSWERED ANOTHER QUESTION. WAS THERE MUCH DIFFERENT IN THE YEARS AND STAMPINGS FROM HUNTING KNIVES TO POCKET KNIVES. THEY TOLD ME IT HAS JUST CASE XX ON IT. LATE FORTIES TO 65 I GUESS. STARS ON THE GUARD. ITS OUT OF AN ESTATE SO SHOULD BE O.K. THE PERSON THAT HAD IT GOT IT FROM ALASKA ON ONE OF HIS TRIPS. IM LEARNING. YOU AAPK PEOPLE ARE ALWAYS A GOOD SOURCE TO COUNT ON. THANKS.
