..that one looks an awful lot like the one I carry everyday, except mine is a 3 1/4" sleeveboard pattern and it has the brass kick separating the secondary blades instead of the spring spacer!!........

Just picked up a bone teardrop stamped "Sword Brand" and the Camillus 4 line stamp on the pen blade. Similar to an Ebony EO that I picked up previously.

I don't know how accurate this information, since Camillus made three versions of the George Washington knife. The first one was offered in 1932, the second version was a smaller knife sold at the 1939 World's Fair and the third version was introduced in the 1990's.
This is the second version.

And one more indirect sign. It seems to me that in 1915-1918 Babe Ruth was not yet so famous that knives would be released in his honor

This Washington Jack pattern (2021) dates to the 1930s. On the ends are Keen Kutters with a Hibbard and a Moore Handley between them.
