Vintage knife identification

I only see a teeny tiny boxed "X" followed by "IMG" in brackets.
Nothing happens when I click on it. :(
 
Ugh, sorry, I have no idea how to post a photo here! Apparently I have to sign up for a photo sharing site like Photobucket or Flickr? I dunno
 
I saw the pic. I'd call it a jigged bone regular jack with a tip head-bolster. Any tang stamps?

You did! Fab! The stamp on the shorter, stockier blade is really worn but it almost looks like Schrade Cut Co but even with a magnifying glass I can't make it out fully. I've Googled the bejeezuz out of the image, and have searched for vintage knives that look like it, but haven't seen an exact match for the shape of the metal "plate" that is on the handle.

Ah, I put in the "jigged bone..." in addition to Schrade Cut Co and found the exact same handle and "stamp", thank you! Now if I can sort out its age, but not so, so important...

Somebody will know where the "Schrade Cut Co" falls in the history of Schrade names.
The plate on a handle is usually called the shield. Yours might be a propellor shield, but I'm always weak on details.

If there was a browser update for my old Windows SURFACE RS tablet, you can bet your last penny and fresh cup of coffee, or mug of ale, I would get it.

Aww, thank you! I've since gotten it sorted! Looks to be a Schrade Cut Co knife from the early 1900's!
 
Which is good enough for me! I found it in an old barn in upstate NY, a little bit rusted open and rusted up but cleaned it up and the pic you saw is the end result. Pretty sweet find, one of my better ones! :)
