Hello all, I have lurked here off and on but finally decided to join. I have enjoyed knives (especially "traditional" folders) all of my life, I own a couple dozen of them,but hardly think of them as a collection. Each tool has it's own purpose, and each of my knives has a story as to why I have it.
That brings me to this knife. It was the property of my great aunt. I have had it for 20 years, and I remember it in her possession for more than 20 years before that. She was an aircraft cabin mechanic for Northwest Orient Airlines in Minneapolis through the 1950's and 1960's and it may have been something she carried everyday in her tool kit.
This knife is a 3.25" three bladed stockman style. The "bone' side panels are a black applique over stainless steel, which is also textured. I cannot make out what is stamped on the base of the large blade other than "USA"
