U.S.A" & "CM-1" printed at the base of the large blade and on the back of the large blade at the base is "00016" "Stainless". Can anyone tell me how old this knife is or the value, or any information at all? Thank You, Nancy

:) I've just acquired one of these Schrade stockman featuring the Kentucky Rifle. The only difference is that the number on mine is 13978. Can anyone help with dates or any other information. Thanks. David

Without a picture, it sounds like what was quite possibly one of, if not the, first Commemerative knives. That one was made by Schrade for A. G. Russell's Knife Collectors Club in 3 grades.
Much information here.....

Others may have more to add as well.

Thanks, Bill. I'm now even more pleased with the acquisition. Something special about a knife makes all the difference. Cheers. David
