Here's a 3 blade Winchester jack knife that was left to its own demise. I saved it at a flea market.
The little pen was tipped but all was salvageable. 3 7/16"

That is quite handsome, I can see why you wanted to save it!

Good question, GSPTOPDOG.
I had no idea so I looked in my Levine's Guide to Knives, 3rd edition.
Page 103, bottom right.
I thought it was odd that this knife had only one stamp. Only on the main blade.
I learned it was a machine made "assortment knife". Not a term I am familiar with.
It was made in the early thirties as an inexpensive assortment knife. Levine describes mine perfectly.
Who knew? Except now we know.

Nice! Most of the lighter-centric tools I've seen usually held a lighter--whether it clipped to the lighter (Lighterbro), or whether the lighter went in it (i.e. Schrade Navitool). Walmart used to sell a refillable butane lighter that had Swiss Army knockoff tools inside, and I think Victorinox shortly offered a lighter as a tool. Never seen one that compact, and as simple.
I'm surprised the paracord companies don't offer anything like this. You have two of the three major tools (something to cut it, something to melt the ends so they don't unravel) all in one tool.

That would be a great lanyard making tool.

Never even thought of that.

I've never seen that stamp before.
Any clue what it is?

Looks like a fish tail with a lion's head and a schmiter. Googled it and got nothing.

I picked this up in a trade. It's the only Viking I have.
The celluloid handle is certainly a funky color, kind of a metallic grape juice! Reminds me of the 60s!
