Re: Kissing crane
Klass registered the "Kissing Crane" logo in 1895. There have been numerous variations along it's history. Not sure which era yours is.
"Buffalo" horn is a generalized term that includes cattle horn. Hard to say. Nice piece.

Re: Kissing crane
Thanks for the info! It's a nice little knife, good length and thin so it pockets well. I still need to clean the crud out of well, oil it and give it a good edge.
