    My grandfather passed away a few years back and I kept one of his old pocket knives. I don't know much about it. I was hoping that someone could identify what brand and era that the knife was made. Thanks!

      It looks like a Boy Scouts knife I apologize for not knowing brand off the top of my head. I found a few dating to the 1950s or so this appears to be older possibly 30s.

      That isn't the boy scout shield on there. Brand name should be on the base of the blade.

      @ fortapache. I checked the base of the blade the brand name must have worn off?.... There are no words anywhere on the knife

      Well used as Grandpa has worn the blade down a bit!!! My father had one just as worn!!! I loved holding it!!! Memories!!

      Hello, Try taking a very fine Scotch-brite pad ( by hand) to the base of the blade where it meets the handle. I see a lot of rust at that area!! Good luck in your search, Lou

      Check ebay, search "vintage 2 blade pocket knife" or whatever you can think of to narrow the search. It can take some time but may work. Also google images.

      OK so update I was able to barely make out what I thought was loker cutlery but upon google searching I discovered boker cutlery...now I'm trying to find out the year and style most bokers have a circle logo with a tree in the middle so I'm guessing this is older?.... I would love to find one in better condition to compare
