Unknown maker

Post by Steve in PA »

Hello :D

I recently found an old rosewood handled pocket knive at a local auction. The smaller of the 2 blades is marked "THE CHAS. CHRISTE... CO. PHILA. PA". I've searched the web and looked in my limited library at home and at the bookstores, and I can't find the company's full name or any information regarding this pocket knife manufacturer. Anyone know the full name for this Company or any additional information regarding dates of their existance?

Many Thanks,
Steve K. ::tu::
