Best & Co Cutlery?

Post by DMLEATH »

I got this knife at an auction and have not had luck looking up this tang stamp. Any help is appreciated!

This is a New York Knife Co made knife advertising E.H.Best &Co
Possibly the same Best & Co that had knives made with their brand stamped on the tang?
They did not make their own knives.

That was a German import knife, ceased production around the outbreak of WWII.

Barry, E. H Best was a textile company out of Boston Mass., completely different company (and continent LOL). That's a beautiful etch!!
