Sharp greetings my Steel Brothers!
I think I'm captivated by knives because of the variations that exist. Or if it's the association with steel?
Here for example is a vintage, rare Schrade Scrimshaw (model # SC 505) Gator 3-Blade Stockman Pocket Knife.
It's made in the USA by Schrade, but dating this beauty is difficult as there is little or no information
available on the Internet regarding Schrade Scrimsahw knives.
Now, I don't know for sure if this was made with the University of Florida Gators in mind…..
but the colors are ghastly close !
I have this knife for sale on eBay if you're interested:

i have one just like it, mine still says gators on the blade. It looks as if someone tried cleaning your blade and probably rubbed the gators emblem off. I'm still trying to pinpoint this knife to a year or even a decade.
