I just bought this one. Blade is three and a half inches long. Says S07 on blade. Can't find out much about it. Anyone know about it?

Says Shapleighs and below that in a banner it says st. Louis USA. This is on one side and S07 on the other side. Google didn't offer much help about the knife. Thanks for any assistance.

Handles are yellow pearl looking. Not real pearl I'm sure.

Shapleigh was a hardware store in St. Louis , Mo. I could not find your knife in the limited catalog pages I have, but that company had ties to Simmons Hardware ( Keen Kutter). Just my opinion but I don't think the handle material is original to the knife. Probably dates to the mid 1900"s? ::tu:: Terry
