Been a while since I have been here, wonder if I could tap those Boker minds out there. This is a knife a friend from church has asked me about. Cannot make out blade stamp but it sure looks like a Boker 6006 to me. Is there other manufacturers that made similar knives?

Definitely looks like a 1950s Boker USA 6006 to me. Boker made this same knife for Belknap under the Primble name, but they used a different pattern number. (5812, IIRC)

Thanks Ranger, good to see you are still here as a Boker resource. He told me he cleaned it up a little and got a partial pattern number bit it started with 59 or 58 cannot recall. That makes more sense now

There is what appears to be a star on the tang of one blade, Is this confirmation of a Primble?

It's confirmation that it's a Primble made by Boker. With hat tip to Jerry (RalphAlsip) here's a picture.
