Ruana?

This was given to me for sharpening. It was given to the owner over 35 year ago, and he has used it every Elk serason since. He says that it was well used when he got it. To me it looks like a Ruana, but there isn't a makers mark on it. What do you think? Thanks.
Bob

DOH!!!! Great idea Mark. I did, and they were. It seems that it is an oldie made between 1938 - 1943 which makes it one of the older ones. Sweet.

Terrific! Glad they could ID it for you! You've got a little bit of knifemaking history there.
