Boker 495 MADE IN USA

[Case Olson]

I found this knife on an old farm in South Carolina 30+ years ago. I've seen several 495s on the internet, but not a single blade like this one. Can anyone give some insight as to age and origin?

I've got the 493 two blade barlow with the same made in USA stamp and mine is from the 1950's. Hope this helps!

I really like that "Made in USA" stamped on the bolster. Most of the ones I have seen have the Tree Brand stamp. Guessing somewhere between 1950-60.
