Folks, I have a Trail Maker and would like to borrow some experience from y'all.

I have looked in the Marbles book and based on that, I am pretty sure this is a 1970's knife, but would like to confirm.

Pictures below. Thank you,

Dundee would be proud to carry that knife.

The stag pommel has the look of a newer (1970s) knife to me. ::nod::

The original Trailmakers were not saber ground so it's a newer knife. Sheath is unlike an original too.

I was all but certain it was a 70's knife and I appreciate the confirmation guys.
