Good stuff.

Is this an apprentice blade, based on the stampings?

No, this is a knife by Murray. Only his work is stamped with his last name and Mitsuboshi (three star) stamps. The S stands for Super Blue.

hello Wood Splitter! I joined this forum and the one at Bushcraft when i found this Carter for sale, to find it already went to a good home.
I recently purchased a Muteki neck knife with a pretty Bocote wood handle. The birdseye maple here is also gorgeous.

Anyways for me as a new knife owner do you have any recommendations for keeping the natural wood handles in good condition (K&G?), and also for maintaining the hitachi white steel edge and mitigate rust?

Never mind.
