I saw this knife at a gun show and am trying to identify what model RMK it is. Is it a Model 7?

Thanks!

Lee,

So I guess you're at the Syracuse show. Was this knife on Jim S. table?

Yes it was at his table. The sheath was stamped with a 7.

Most likely a Model 1 saw teeth, no saw teeth grind but single hilt. Could be a 5-7 . Top edge sharpened?

Top edge has an edge but not real sharp.

Telling me 5-7, ST/NST. Could be wrong but I think that's what you got Lee.
Let's get down to the handle, Ivorite?

Maybe I heard him wrong and read the sheath wrong. Yes the handle is Ivorite.

ST/NST=?

It is "not" a "NST" grind. It is a standard Model #5-7", Camp & Trail Model. The "7" on the back of the sheath refers to blade length as the Model #1 and #5 share the same sheath.
Hope this helps, Capt. Chris

Perfect! This explains the 7 on the sheath. I must have misheard that it was a Model 7. Maybe the seller said a 5-7 and these old ears heard it wrong!
