Sellens says it was in the catalogs between 1905 and 1934, but says it had a crest shield after 1924. Neither Sellens or the catalog makes any mention of number of springs? As Roger stated, all three blades would have been stamped. Are there any remnants of stamps on the two smaller blades? As Roger also pointed out, the old pick bone identifies it as an early knife, so IF it is a Keen Kutter it would very likely have been made in the Walden factory.
It looks like it could be... and yes all three have what's left of a stamp, the first few up close are the smaller blades. I just posted up close of the larger blade a few posts back.
Appreciate it Dan ::handshake::
