Hi, this one is so rare no one seems to know who made it..... :lol: Pretty amazing knife though, 3 and 5/8ths and both blades are 2 and 7/8ths inches long. Incredible snap, brass bolsters and oversized brass pins and shield in an odd configuration.....very old celluloid handles and looks like oversize steel pins. Shes heavy and very well made. Still looking for info on this knife if anyone can hazard a guess. Thanks,

Bob

Bob,
my hazardous guess is she's home made all the way.

Nice knife. Sure looks solid!

I've seen these before and I really like them. The one I saw on Ebay went for WAY more than I wanted to pay. Last time I looked there was one in an AAPK store, or is this the one?

Jimmy Allen was a little before my time, I guess. I do remember Sky King and I think the young boy in the show was named Jimmy.
