I have three Kalingo Knives. One is differn't and looks odd to me because compaired to other Buck Kalingo I have ,this knife has the Buck logo upside down with a small U.S.A. underneath it. ie, when the knife is held point down, the words BUCK and U.S.A are rightside up. Why??

I have one marked as yours ,I bought it in the 70's.
You did not mention boxes.
Older (70's)boxes had a looser,fluffier gold velvet type material
inside the box with hinges on the lid.
80's boxes the velvet was not as loose,but still had wrinkles in
the material , box was the same outside as the 70's
90's Kalinga box was two piece no hinges and smooth velvet inside?Wood handles.
Markings on the blade
70's knives were marked upside down
