There is not much information out there on this company so anything you can tell me is appreciated

this is a 4 1/4" cigar pattern bone handle knife

the markings on the tang are hard to see but it is marked "BOOS Toledo OH"

as you can see the pin has been replaced or reset but I still believe blades to be original....they look 100+ years old to me and they have identical markings

From what I can find out it was made 1850 to 1890

its a rare find I think

any information or any one else have anything like it?

Thanks

I researched this a few days ago and couldnt find anything...now there is 2 for sale on a google search but still little to no information on the knife or even the company who made it.

Thanks

Goins shows Boos to date from 1866 to 1936.
