Tiny, isn't it? I'm thinking Swedish origin being all of my relatives are from Sweden or Norway and probably this was made around the turn of the century. Handed down from kin to kin and hard to trace back that far. No identifying marks on it so I'm at a loss as to the maker. Opens just fine and still very sharp.
Most of these miniature knives were made in Germany. The only maker's mark I have seen on this style is "Peres" (Daniel Peres, Solingen, 1800-now) stamped on the bolster. Occasionally one is marked "Germany" on the blade. Your is exceptionally small.
I have one just like it but it is two blade
The knife used by Lincoln to stab Roosevelt for getting a higher denomination.
