Knife identification

Post by Sjkn4kds »

I am looking to identify the manufacturer and age of this knife. The tang stamp is nearly gone; but the remaining letters are CHAR.

It makes me think that it is in the middle of a name, like "Richards", or something. I am only going by the remains of the tang stamp, not the rest of the knife. I am not knowledgeable enough on this style to do that.

I agree with the reverand, looks like a richards Southbridge Mass. If it is they were in business 1862-1908. Opinion only, not for sure!
