ADDITIONAL INFO:     John Goins’ in his book “Goins’ Encyclopedia of Cutlery Markings,” says this tang stamp was used circa 1870 to 1940 and was marked on all blades. In 1940 the tang stamp was reduced to the master blade only. From that information I would deduce this knife was made prior to 1940.
