I am not so smrt….

I posted this in Knife Finds of the Day…. But this is a better spot to seek input.
Apologies if reposting is a sin.
I scooped a rusty bare headed jack from the junker bin at a local antique shop for $3 Canadian :D After a bit of a scrub it revealed (on the clip blade) itself to be a Robeson/Shuredge/Rochester ::ds:: The pen blade is stamped Robeson/Cut Co. There is no model number. The scales are a composite that looks like horn. The liners, and maybe the bolsters, are steel. It is a bit over 3 1/4” closed.
Any further information about this knife will be appreciated.
Thanks,
J

Thanks.
The great resource that is AAPK has added to what I know about this little knife. It is from 1922-1939 based on the wording of the tang stamp. It may be a model 32140, but shows no sign of a model # stamp.
It sharpened up beautifully and fits in my pocket nicely. :D

I think the handles are what some of us consider to be an early form of Micarta.

Sweet little knife for three bucks.
