I was lucky enough to be given mine by my father-in-law many years ago. He'd gotten it in a job lot from a local auction house. Around 3 1/2" closed.

Hoping for some help identifying this knife.
Maybe C.W. Dahlgren?

That is one very neat little knife! ::tu:: It looks like wood; am I correct?

That is a nice one, Edge!
Mine has a lot of blade wear. Someone had painted the handle green, but I was able to clean off the paint and expose that beautiful Birch on mine.
I am glad to see that yours has been much better taken care of!
