It looks like it was made yesterday.

Great looking piece!

Some years ago, I too was blessed with a toolbox find. It was not a Latama but a good ol' American springer...

Phone cameras back then were not too good.

Hence forth, I will be inventorying every toolbox I find whenever I come across one! Also checking local newspapers for yard sales!!

In all seriousness, that's a good piece of luck, both for you and the knife. Now it can be in a much healthier environment and be properly cared for.

Peace.

Many of us are interested in the exact markings on old switchblades! Thanx

Great Find, Congratulations, I acquired this about 46 years ago for what I thought was a lot of money, $20!

I find it strange that everyone writing here has not yet said the word . . . " Flatguard "

[sammy the blade]

Flatguard, how's that.

Not round guard! I guess its FLAT
