I've got tons of military clasp knives, so I'll not post anymore after this one (a variant without a marlin spike by Sheffield Steel Products)

These were made by Edward Krause in Czechoslovakia before WW2, and in the USA, they were given away with Cracker Jack popcorn in the 1930's. They're about a couple of inches long.
