vintage Cutco paring knife design patent number 3122774 black handle

Used vintage stainless steel paring knife with Cutco grip handle - I did not see the Cutco written out as a marking on this one. I saw no markings at all on the blade, though the handle has the small marking shown in the photos, and patent number 3122774.

This shows some wear and light use - very usable yet, but not a perfect piece for the serious Cutco crazed collector.
