Dennis- It does fire and lock but the spring is weak so action is sluggish. Another member replied to one of my posts in the knife Q&A forum in regards to a mystery knife I got from the same estate sale and he pointed me at a thread with lots of Tang stamps from various makes..one is a list of various Colonial Tang stamps...and there is one example that matches this knife and it' lists that stamp as 1948...However I'm a noob and have not done any other research as yet. I got a ccouple of other 'antique' knives from the same estate sale .a remington circa 1935-1940 and a possible Northfield Un-X-LD from original company ..but need to do more research on that one too...point is the fellow whose estate it was had other knives with that kind of age on them ..but as I say, I'm new to this so could be completely wrong just as well .. Cheers!
