Question on USN items

Edward Tinker · 06-03-2008, 09:17 PM

I picked up two interesting items; one is a typical folding black pocket knife, I saw them in the army while in in the 1980's, while the second is a 'folding" cup with a patent date of pre-WW1.

Both are marked USN SA

What does the SA stand for?
