This is a really nice Tenite handled model 14. Made from a 50’s era Solingen blade with the hallmark vertically on the ricasso. The blade retains its original shape as delivered from Germany, plus original finish. There are a few light scratches when viewed from an angle in the light, apparently from debris in the sheath, but no signs of use and only the faintest  sign of sharpening. 
 
The large brass hilt of the day shows no blemishes. The Tenite handle shows no shrinkage. Really nice. 
 
The Maurice Johnson Brown Button sheath is far less common than its canteen snap style predecessor, due to the short period of production.
 
This knife/sheath combo  is in wonderful condition, only exhibiting some light handling/storage.
