I have a small knife that I need a little help with. The blades do not have any markings but the handle has D F. B. CO marked on it. Would anyone recognize this and be able to give me some help?
Thanks for any input!

Put D.F.B. Co. In your search engine and you'll find that it was the mark used by D.F. Briggs Co of Attleboro, Mass which was a jewelry store. The knife looks like a little gentleman's watch fob knife which were popular at the time men carried pocket watches. The knife could have been made by one of several companies, with the gold filled handle covers applied by the jeweler.
