You are a fortunate man indeed, rustybones. This should happen to every one at least once.

From what I gather this stamp was used from 1900-1919.
There is a bit of a story in Goin's Encyclopedia about this company.

That is a beautiful old knife. ::tu::

Great knife RB. Keep that chain right there. You can look a long time for that knife and a lot longer for one with the factory chain on it. Nice score

Lately, I was fortunate enough to acquire a couple of Napanoch multi—tool knives...

The first one & the real prize is the complete № 8000A 9 piece set in the original leather pouch. The tools including the spear point blade share a jigged bone lockback handle. Each tool is stamped with the patent date 1/29/1907.
11846 11847

Just before buying that set, I picked up this № 602... an equal end wood handled, single blade folding jack that had tools that interlocked at the other end. Unfortunately the dealer didn't have any of the tools the originally came with the knife.
11844 11845
'til later....
