The first official Girl Scout fixed blade knife
was offered January 1926 by the

with a 3 1/2" blade with the trefoil on the blade.

Unknown maker
The inventory number 13-253 remains the same going forward to a similar looking knife of 1953 that is known to be Schrade Walden. The difference is in the handle (this one appears slimmer), the pommel, and the trefoil is missing on the blade.
