Hey guys! I got this in another small knife lot I bought today and I can't guess what the tang stamp says. Definitely USA and a maker etc. Any guesses? The blade and knife overall are in the good condition so I imagine it's not too old. It is one of the worst tourist type knives I've seen,paper thin pearl,not even fully rounded edges, has Florida "thing" attached to it and you can tell it was glued on wrong at first etc. Just nothing special. I get very intrigued when I can't figure something out and this one has me stumped. I'm sure one of you guys have the info I seek. And I will appreciate it very much! Thanks in advance!

I'm going to stick my wanger in the grinder and guess it's "Ideal Knife Company". Don't know anything about it but that's my best guess. Fire at will.

Better than my guess of," it's made in the USA." haha. Gives me a starting point anyway and I appreciate it!

Here is a photo I took of an Ideal I have that shows the tang stamp. Could be the same?

bonz, please show the knife and other blades that may have a stamp. And tell us the length.
