Bronson & Townsend - Pequot

Post by FRJ »

Bronson & Townsend Hardware Co., New Haven, Conn. 1923 - 1938
Pequot ........ trademark

What a nice little knife this is. Very well made with snappy half stops on both blades.
I swear, someone left 1 grain of salt on the main blade. Made a deep little pit.
Nickel silver pins and brass liners. Faint etch is still quite visible up close.
