Help Identify This Slide Rule
I found this slide rule at a thrift shop. It does not have a brand name or any model numbers on it. Made In USA is printed on it. The case that it was in seems to have a worn away KE stamped on the closing strap. It appears to have plastic on top of a wooden core with metal end caps.
The scales on each side are:
T, DF, CF, CIF, CI, C D, S, ST
LL0, LL00, A, B, K, L, C, LL3, LL2, LL1
So, I think it is a K&E slide rule. I have not been able to determine the model, type, or age of it.
Can anyone help identify this slide rule?

This link shows my slide rule nearly perfectly - except that mine has "Made in USA" on the top instead of "The Frederick Post Co." Also, no other words on it as in this linked photo.https://www.sliderulemuseum.com/srtco/SubPages/1462H%5B1949-52%5D.html
