Doesn't that look like Indy's knife to you?
That is a boy scout knife from about 1935'ish. From a picture I took at the Church Museum of Art in SLC. It belonged to Pres. George Albert Smith, a big time scouter (received the silver beaver and buffalo medals) I saw it and thought, "Aha!"

Looks right, and makes sense within the gear universe as we know it. Nice find.

As a Cubmaster with a local pack and a hug Indy fan, I have decided I need that knife.

Yup, I think that Todd has the best replica out there without spending an arm and a leg...

though the colour of the handle on mine was very light - before I worked on it
