About This Item

In 1940, my dad took a job with a railroad gang of the Frisco Railroad line out of Springfield, MO. The gang needed a cook so my mom was hired also. They lived and cooked (wood/coal burning stove) out of a converted box car. This knife was given to dad as a momento of this journey.
