Buck General120 manufacture date

[Jason Richmond]

I have a Buck General 120 that I was given to me by a collector years ago and am having trouble looking up the date made. Hopefully one of you can help. The search here at blade forums is not working for me.
The knife is stamped on the blade with "BUCK" only. Has no model stamp or USA stamp. The blade is about 8" long with overall length of 12.5". The black phenolic handle has brown and aluminum spacers at the guard and pommel. The sheath has 120 stamped on the back side and is the full length style with a snap closed flap.
Thanks much,
Jason

Hi Jason,
Your 120 should be a 1967 or older with the tang stamp "BUCK" only.

Thanks Scott. I was thinking of selling it but if it's that old I think I better keep it around.
