Looks like a 899 Slim Premium Stock Knife

Probably closer to 86

Handles are Delrin so it's post 1960.

The tang stamp is post 1973. I would like to see the other side of the knife. I am not yet sure that the 'punch blade' is a punch blade. All 897s are stainless steel. I think your knife is either a worn 895 or a worn 899, as previously suggested.

TongueR here's a pic of the other side and as you can see the tang the third did get is distorted ::hmm::to me it looks like 897

I can't quite make the tangstamp number out, but the knife is an 899 and dates to sometime after about 1975 or so, and possibly as late as 1986.

"Punch blade" new term to me. Not sure what that means?

Made to twist clock-wise to made a belt hole in leather or as we do in the woods to tap a maple tree 899slim premium ,1975-1986 thanks for your help
