Nice find! You may know already but Bridge Cutlery was one of several house brand names owned by Shapleigh Hardware of Saint Louis. Shapleigh was not a manufacturer. Their knives were made on contract by Empire, Schrade, Camillus and possibly others. There is a lot about Bridge Cutlery and Shapleigh here in the Knife Lore forum.
