This is a ***VERY RARE*** TIDIOUTE CUTLERY CO 1-Blade Brass Cigar Cutter in great condition. I have never seen a cigar cutter made by Tidioute though I imagine they’re out there. I can’t say for sure if this is the original Tidioute Cutlery Co. or ones made by Union or Baldwin at a later date. Not sure if either Union or Baldwin even used the Tidioute Cutlery Co brand on their knives. It’s still rare nonetheless. This beauty has what appears to be unused and unsharpened spear point blade with a common nail pull. The front face has some scattered clusters of very light pitting. The rear face has some scattered light staining with some embedded micro-pits. There’s still quite a bit of the original factory finish left on both faces and it still maintains its original factory edge. The blade still has an excellent snap on open and and a nice thump on close. It also has the perfect tension to guillotine the tip off of the cigar when placed in the hole in the brass frame. Stamped on the front tang is TIDIOUTE (in an arch)(over) CUTLERY CO. There seems to be something else below that but it’s illegible or it’s just scratches. The brass frame polished up beautifully and bright as brass will typically do is properly polished. It does have, however, quite a few scratches and dings from handling.  On the end the knife still has the original brass bail riveted to the frame. The knife/cigar cutter has a single steel back spring with the perfect tension for the blade to cut through the cigar tip. This **RARE** Brightly Polished Brass Vintage or Antique Tidioute Cutlery Co Cigar Cutter/Pocket Knife would be a must have for either a Tidioute collector or a cigar cutter collector. It was made in the In the Tidioute factory located in Tidioute, Pennsylvania or a little later either by Union or Baldwin. The knife/cigar cutter and is 2 3/8” in length not counting the bale.
