No Alberta, the large one is by Wade and Butcher and has Bukta etched on the blade. Bukta was a scouts outfitters who started in the 1920s. The smaller one has no stamp, but many were made by Rodgers. Every lad in the land once had a knife like this, especially if they were a boy scout, girl guides as well I would imagine. Now of course they are prohibited, which is a great shame.

Very interesting. Marble's current Campcraft was originally their Scout Knife; I have one from Mike Stewart's era there in 52100, very similar. Agree it is a shame that Scouts today prohibit knives like that. We used to practice archery and target practice with .22s at Scout camp in the 1950s... I still treasure my Eagle badge.
