This is an old Japan folding Hawkbill knife from circa 1950s-60s. It features a wood handle with carbon steel blade. The quality of fit and finish is rather rough, but such was the manufacturing back then. Blade is unmarked but from the same maker as the other we are offering that is marked "Japan". Likely produced for Sabre, made in Seki, Japan.
