No...it's long gone
My folks loose a lot of stuff, and that was 45 or so years ago.
As I remember it did not look right after that, however it was a good kitchen worker.

I have a 4 1/2" and a 3 1/2" Model #10. Actually I own "3", 4 1/2 or 5" Model #10's with "drop points. Perry got my 4" drop point. I'll have to find another one someday. I'll post some photos, after I take them tomorrow....After coffee. I just am not up to diggin' all of that "nostalgia" up tonight. I do think I can find one Dave sold me at the shop/ Mid to late 80's. It is old green canvas with a special "Griffin Grip" (That's what David called it). It has 2 sets of thumb notches and is far thicker handle material than the norm. The brown-stiched sheath was special ordered from Greg in the early 90's.
Best, Capt. Chris

Capt'N...

It almost looks like a modified hybrid between the Crider Special and a Regular Mdl 10.
Add sawteeth to the top and you'd close at it very closely to see make sure it wasn't a JCS.

What a great collector find!

Doc,
It wasn't a find. Dave made it up for me, back in the day when this was not terribly uncommon. Truth is: The Crider special is a Model #10, either 5" or 7" with some special bevel sharpening and "C" sheaths. Sometimes even sawteeth. This knife has 3/8" handle stock.
Best, Capt. Chris

"There were a very few of these knives made in the early 60's with stag handle. The exact number is unknown."
...as Perry stated.

The #10-3" was made for RMK employes only.
