premier cutlery co., ltd. - lifetime, premcut - toronto, ontario - wholesale importer - german/japan - 1921-

that's from levine's 5th edition

sorry i can't date the knife though. some one might guess by the construction.

Goins shows 1921 to 1955. Located in NY and an importer, mainly German.

levines lists both .
premier cutlery co. - new york - 1921-1955

and

premier cutlery co., ltd. - toronto - 1921 to present.

i chose the one with ltd. in the name.? i'm sure the companys are related.

Johnnie,
Looking back at the photos, I believe yours is the correct one.
In actuality, they are probably the same company, just one in Canada and one in the USA.
