I have this old electrician's knife. No idea who made it. This is the only mark on it. It's American.

Anyone?

I'm cleaning it up and sharpening it for an everyday pocket knife.

That's an old Queen Cutlery tang stamp.

Look to see if you have the TL-29 mark on it ... "Tool, Lineman #29". WWII issue ... everything in the kit was numbered ... and the electricians knife was #29.

Camillus was well known and looks similar, but that's a Queen. (btw Queen was the sister of Ontario Knife Co - another military supplier.)
 
Thanks. I think you nailed it. Or stabbed it. And it must be old. The current Queen marks are more detailed, fancier. No number though.

It was fairly sharp when got it and sharpened up more quite well.
