I just picked up this minty SW 3-9/16" stockman, with some unusual characteristics, and I wonder if it isn't a club knife. My first question in perusing the catalogs is: What's the difference between an 825 and an 895? Same size and looks the same in the catalogs. This knife has jigged bone handles, threaded bolsters, and the heraldic shield usually found on whittlers, not the normal stockman badge shield. It also has a serial number 106 on the front bolster. Blades seem to be stainless, and the only tang stamp is the one on the clip main, the 1954-'73 stamp. F&F and W&T are top notch. Any info will be greatly appreciated!
