The only Ohio Knife Co. that I'm aware of was an industrial type knife maker here in Cincinnati. They made those huge blades that are used in machines to cut items of great thickness (I'm thinking reams of paper for some of the paper companies that used to be in the area) and such. As far as I know, they had the knife pictured as an Ad Knife, but they very may well have partnered with someone for a line of normal cutlery. The tang of this little knife is hard to read, but looks like "A.US?ICO".
