    Isn't that the boy scouts logo?? a variation of it?? Here's what I found, maybe you can compare.

    I don't think so. Handle is completely different and no logo. Mine has a corkscrew and I can't figure out what that pronged thing on the opposite end from the blade is.
    People may laugh at me, but that's ok. I laugh all the way to the bank.

    That's what I thought but I can't get it to work because of the bent tip which is meant to be there. There's a cutout for it on the handle.
