Old Folding Pruner

[Mossdancer]

This is a pretty old fellow. Horn handles, I would ha said it was a penny knife but it has a back spring which is hammer forged. Looks like the blade is Hammer forged also. The handles are held on by birds eye rivets. The Blade has a nice saber grind. The only ID is a touch mark on the tang. I think maybe from mid 19th century. Has the look of a knife for heavy duty, maybe for grape vines or the such. Take a look and offer some of your knowledge or opinions. Please,
