MRB: Here's a couple with nail nicks on the punch. Both are H. Boker & Co's Improved cutlery.

A pocket knife is still an intimate personal possession of the individual who carries it and consequently deserves the best of materials, finish and workmanship in its production. (Quoted from Boker's 1928 cutlery catalog).

How about this punch on the Schrade Walden 906, it looks like a Marlin Spike that has been quartered.

Dale, I like everything they do - nice looking punch.
Great Eastern has revived the Napanoch/Winchester punch! (At my request 8) ), and have done a good job of it! Works beautifully!
Just got these babies into my grubby paws. Nice fit and finish, and the blade is sharp enough to incise the surface of the leather with initials.

Charlie, I can't say that it does but I might be missing something.

I am curious to know who made that knife but as it is it's a grand little knife no matter who made it.
I'm glad to have it.
