This is a civilian electrician's knife. This knife was made during the 1940's (post WWII) or during the 1950's. The model #27 with wood handles was first offered in 1946 and has the new post war model number.

Might I suggest going to Microsofts web site and downloading the free picture resizing tool for Windows XP?

For the dial up guys those huge pics take forever to download and you'll find you get more replies that way in most cases.

Just an idea because making it so you have to scroll sideways to read from the way the larger pics stretch out the screen is sometimes looked at an annoyance.
