Any info on this knife would be appreciated
Probably marked on the blade, the end nearest the handle when opened. You will need to clean it up to get blade to open:

Blades are too corroded to try to open. I tried a little area and it just basically disintegrated. I don’t think I would be able to extract it without destroying it. Hoping the long diamond shaped emblem on the side would give some clue as to maker. Thanks
Looks like a Case knife.
Looked it up on a website dealing with case knives. The knives with a plain diamond shield and no letters, like this one, were from 1905-1915. I appreciate the comment.
