Ebay has a listing from earlier this year - same model number. Hope this helps.

I've got an old K & E too. A few years ago someone posted a link to a site that cross-referenced K & E serial numbers with years. I tried to find it just now with no luck but if you hunt you might succeed.

> serial 117421

According to the below link it was probably made in 1952.
