If your knife is 5 1/4", it is probably an 1177 pattern. What are the handles, wood or horn?

It is 5 1/4". They're wood handles. There's an 1177 on EBay but mine looks different,doesn't have 1177 on the tang & the end of the handle is different.There is a man & bear shield on mine which I haven't seen before.

There are several Kabar 1177s on eBay in the completed listings.
All are bare heads, but yours has a rear bolster.
It may have been in SFO (special factory order) for a Kabar dealer, jobber or distributor.
Nice-looking knife.
