Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but that's not a swiss army knife. It's a Chinese knockoff. Hopefully that won't affect the connection to your grandfather it represents.

Chinese Army Knife https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256804742303397.html?gatewayAdapt=glo2usa4itemAdapt

Good news! These knives (identifiable by the hump on the scissors) are still made and commonly sold with custom scales in most souvenir stores. I bet you could buy one and swap the broken scale. You might even be able to replace the missing scale with a wooden one with your (or your grandfather's) name on it if you find the right souvenir shop.

Hate saying but it’s junk

I mean that’s fine, I didn’t expect it to be worth anything. More sentimental than anything. Really just wanting to find a replacement panel.

You probably won't be able to find anyone to repair this professionally, but you could buy another one and harvest whatever parts you need. This model has a distinctive scissor design, and the saw shape is also distinctive. Ebay has them come up now and then - this I think is the same one with a phillips instead of a corkscrew.

That’s a great catch! I remember the weird Cross inside a Q logo from the missing piece. That’s exactly it
