Doesn't say which model it is. I do see the number on blade is 721116 is that how to find model is the first two numbers the "72"

That is correct, the first two digits are the model number. The last two digits are the production year. The numbers in between determine the number of blades and type of main blade, I believe.

Tang Number Chart
Main Blade Identity

0.Wharncliffe
1. Regular Clip
2. Regular Spear
3. Sheep Foot
4. Spey
5. Drop Point/Skinner
6. Sabre Clip
7. Sabre Spear
8. Muskrat Clip
9. Cotton Sampler

For Example: if the Tang Stamp reads 735208

# 73 = Pattern number

5 = the main blade (Drop point/Skinner)

2 = the knife has 2 blades

08 = it was made in 2008
