I would like to think this knife and your 110 sold together were from the same owner . Which would make sense on the age of each. Great looking knife. I am such a sucker for clip blades. This one looks like a pocket full of wonderfulness. Some of the snap may come back with a good clean. Hopefully so.
Picked up this USA made Western model 062 double bladed folding hunter / skinner complete with sheath today when I bought it as a pair with an old '70's Buck 110.If you know more about the company, or the Western 062 B, or another Western model, or Westerns in general, please lay it down here?

Western brand knives have a special place in my heart. I own and used a Western Bowie for camp use, a yellow handled folding fishing knife, several of their fixed blade knives and a couple of their scout style pocket knives along with a couple of stockman knives, a couple of their lockbacks, and a couple of their smaller pocket knives. I bought all of them new and they were my favorite knives when I first started collecting knives when I was 8 years old.Western was known for making a quality knife at a reasonable price. Their knives were made to be used everyday. They had great fit and finish.When I was growing up most sporting goods stores and hardware stores had a large Western display case like the one in the first picture.Here are several pictures of a Western model 542 with a Delrin handle that I purchased new in 1981. The blade has a letter E stamped on it.Click on the pictures for best picture.

Vicman, I remember those Western displays when I was young. The one I remember most was in a Otasco store.
