Found a 1940's Pocket Knife Almost the Same as My Late Father's Knife!

Pretty cool find today. I found a 1940's hawkbill pocket knife that is almost a dead ringer for one of my late father's knives he had as a kid! I found it deep in the woods and along a stone wall.

As you can see by the pics, it's in very nice shape, considering how long it's been in the ground. The bakelite casing is a different color, but it's almost a perfect match in every other way. What the heck are the odds of that?

Here's a few pics of the knives:
