It's a Model 15. The blade was sourced from Germany by Bo because of the demand during the VN war exceeded his Swedish steel source. It looks like the stamp was etched which was fairly common because the German steel had been hardened. Why the scimitar is missing and the number 12 appears in it's place is a head scratcher! Never seen that before. Based on the "split back sheath" that accompanies it (Denoted by the large throat rivets), I believe it to be late 60's. Best, Ron
