The postman just delivered this early Model 7-4 today. Note its diminutive size compared to the 7-4-1/2" with Heiser sheath shown below it in the second picture.

Perhaps someone knows more than I about this very early Model 7.

Art. You have a very nice pair of #7's there. Nice sheaths too. Especially the top Clarence Moore sheath with both a translucent and brown button snap.
I would guess both to be made in the 1945-'49 range, judging the peened tang on them both, with the bottom knife with the Heiser sheath just a bit older. Your newer one seems to have a more defined grind line.
Great pair of knives Art.

See photos of the backs of both sheaths posted below. They are in the same order as my first post. Bottom knife shown second.
