I thought I had them all and now I find out KJ does exist. Looks like I'll I have to keep an eye out for one.

Ha, I had forgot reading about that one. Perhaps I should just stick with the USGI models? But that takes the fun out of collecting. I guess you're never really done and so the quest continues. Thanks for the reminder.

Riesch 8th edition sums up all the changes on page 235 and says the KJ and BW may not exist. I discussed the 8th edition did not have enough changes to justify buying if you had the 7th. Ricca was a valuable source of information. He was correct on most things, however not everything. (who is?) The KJ oiler being obvious as existing. The finish on oilers early on were all blued but wore easily from sling friction. I am fairly sure all the International Silver oilers were originally blued. After the war things like oilers and magazines were pulled out of packaging and phosphate coated, put back in the packaging or repackaged. I am sure some have seen oilers in the box for sale, and they are refinished with a phosphate coating
