Identification Winchester

Winchester entered the knife market as a manufacturer in 1919 by acquiring two existing knife companies; Eagle Knife Co. of Connecticut & Napanoch Knife Co. of New York. Winchester stepped away from the market in 1942 to focus on war related manufactured products, but re-entered in the late 1980s by licensing its name to Blue Grass Cutlery. Blue Grass had high quality knives made by Queen Cutlery that featured the Winchester brand name for a handful of years until the license arrangement ran its course. Winchester eventually started licensing to other companies & now you will find the brand name used by several knife manufacturers by way of license agreements.

You have the manufacturer and the model number, and that is the majority of the information.
Winchester knives that are in good condition are sought after, but unfortunately condition is everything, and the blades on yours are worn out.
I would sharpen it and use it as long as it lasted.
Jesus is life.
Everything else is just a hobby.
