All About Pocket Knives

Just picked up this little gem

From the main identification thread in the forum read this as 1968 vintage or thereabouts…
Any thoughts?

Last 1/3 of 1967 to 1968

Many thanks!

Feels like a Western ....but no markings.... Any ideas out there from the experts? Sheath looks like it might-could be Western

I love Western knives ....But.... I know very little

If there are no stamps on the ricassos and there are no stamps on the guard, then it is not a Western made knife.

I'm confused (not an unusual condition) but the last picture in the OP shows a stamp that says "WESTERN" over "BOULDER COLO USA". Is that a different knife?

Yes Ken, it is, that Western marked knife is from the original posting with a Western tang stamping, I have added my pictures to see if anyone can help me out as to who made the knife I just acquired in the newest pictures. It looks and feels like a Western #49 but w/o any markings.

Got it! Now.

Thanks for clarification.
