Just as added info (if anyone cares).....

That mark was actually owned by Precise International. They were importers based in NY, who had cutlers, like Voos and Schlieper, make contract knives for them with that mark. They were the U.S. agent for Wenger Swiss Army knives and accessories, but I don't believe they are still in business (even though they were when Levine's #4 was published), and of course Wenger sold to Victorinox.
