Good afternoon-

I just received the knife from the below ebay listing:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/111572095822...:MEBIDX:IT

I knew it wasn't a Schrade M7S from the pictures, and I am happy with the purchase.

When I disassembled through knife the cross guard was spot welded to the tang, and the grip scales were marked "CF8590022" and "NELLA" over a maple leaf.

I was wondering if anyone had heard of Nella making a Canadian version of the M7S? The more I look at the second run C7s and "Desert Storm" M3s attributed to Nella the more I think this knife may be related.

Thanks!
 
I just bought an M7s today with the same scales. Mine is from Imperial (in the Schrade family I believe)
I did some research and stumbled across a thread about this from 2012, I think. The explanation was that Nella made the M7s scales in Canada for a while.
My blade is stamped USA, and my guard is held in place by a u-shaped bar running through the tang. Very interesting.
