Jesse,
That could quite possibly be a keeper.
Not sure don't you know, but when I decide I'll let you know.
Congratulations on a great find!

This is around 1954-55 vintage model 1. The handle keeper was gone by 56, but could probably be had a bit later on a 1-6 sheath as it is not as popular as a 1-7 or 1-8. So, sheath may sit for a bit longer. But the spacer configuration was used for a short time in the mid 50's,maybe a year or so, although it did show up again in the late 50's to early 60's but only on a few knives, not as the standard of the period. That would be three thick two thin.
