What are the liners made of? Many of the knife companies used steel liners during WWII, so that might be a clue. My first thought when I saw it was "early 1950s" (no real reason I can put my thumb on though--just a gut feeling).
Nice knife!

I found some answers to this small knife. It was used in the
Army Air Corps. in WWII. After the war Ulster most likely sold
the surplus stock to sears. This was found on AAPK Ulster
Collecting Knife Lore. Reported by Dimitri.
Thanks Harold
