Love it Roger.
It's great to see these old examples in good condition , they're beautiful and good to reference others with.Researching Goins it seems the good knives marked Beaver Falls were probably only made between 1865-1872.

Fine old knife!

I am just seeing this knife now, it is really outstanding. First Beaver Falls knife I have ever seen. I just read a little about them recently, and how they were one of the suppliers for JBF Champlin before he started Cattaraugus. Does anyone else have a Beaver Falls knife to share? I'd love to see some more examples.

I didn't go past the search results, but I'm pretty sure you'll find
a few Beaver Falls scattered amongst the topics and threads.
