Trying to post pic of a vintage AITOR knife.

As for fit and finish it is a little rough. It has a lot of heft and feels like it can take a beating. The awl is like the ones you find on a Wenger SAK. It does not show up too well but it has a ice pick like file on the back of the knife that I thought was real curious. The seller claims it is over 40 yrs old.
 
Does that pick in the last picture look polished, or uneven and possibly ground? I wonder if that was a tool they thinned out.
 
sure does look old e'nuff stuff; considering the bail in place along with the vintage blue aitor shield logo in print.
something from the '70-ish period at worst?
any year printed on the instruction sheet?
 
I believe the pick is a long file. If you hold it right it will work great on fingernails. I will re-read the instructions and box but I could not find a date anywhere.
