That style of 3-D shield is found on Schrade knives?? I wonder . . . . . .

Looks like @Buzzbait addressed this previously and came to the conclusion it's a Camillus. They had a "Camp Scout", "Stainless Scout", "Standard Scout" and just "Scout". I'm guessing mine is a mid to late 40's model.

Schrade had a shield similar to this but it said "Schrade Walden"

Please forgive me. I'm not sure, but I believe I'm currently experiencing either brain pharts, or old man hours, and don't recall.
The "blade" below the can opener ... I "know" I've seen it before, but daRned if I remember what it is and used for.
Also is that piece with the number, an integral part of that "blade"?

Very nice Schrade Walden, by the way. Does it see pocket time, or is it too rare for that?

I've not seen a blade like that on a knife before, but it reminds me of those things to open a pour hole in a can.

It is a "punch" style can opener or what my family called a "church key". It is all one piece. I do not carry that one because it's in good condition but I do have a different one I carry because it's a very handy knife.

Mate, i have not seen one of them for years, When i was growing up they were in every kitchen drawer and most men had one on their key ring.

We had one with a magnet that lived on the side of the fridge. But by the time I was a kid in the 80's it was only used on cans of condensed milk

We always had cans of Hershey chocolate syrup that my Dad had to have to put on top of his nightly bowl of vanilla ice cream LoL

I had forgotten about the Hershey's syrup, its been in plastic bottles so long now I forgot about the cans. I remember having it in the can as a kid now

Dad used to keep a church key in his tool box to open cans of motor oil. I can't remember when they went to plastic bottles. '70's maybe?

Got some to add... Ulster Girl Scout Knife and a 1955 or 1956 Imperial IMPC4C (BSA model #1996)

I have a similar one Charlie and isn't it weird the bone is almost an orange color? I'll find mine and post it too Cool to see what the etch looked like
