All About Pocket Knives

I am not a Colonial expert but I do not recall seeing a Colonial arch stamp over Knife Co. Neat old knife with a baseball emblem on both sides that says Official League Ball. What's the date range on this one?

I believe you have a very early model there but still seeing if I can find a match.
Arched Colonial over Knife Co is a valid stamp (predating arched Colonial over Providence) but the examples I see also have made in USA.

Cool knife !

That's a really cool one. Id say 1930 ish. No later than 40. I think the slightly different stamp is just due to the size of the blade, the date range for it could be congruent with the ranges for other stamps. Dates for Colonial are almost always approximate unless you have Bobby's book and can match yours to a known example, or if a similar knife with advertising that contains a year can be found.
