OK friends, I have another knife I need help identifying. Bought this one today at House of Blades in Ft. Worth. Push dagger with X / B in a circle. Also stamped number 12 on reverse. Anybody have any ideas who made this one? Thanks

Perhaps August Born, of Ohio ?
Here is a link with a photo of a different knife with similar markings.

That does look like it, Thanks. That was a better answer than "Martha Stewart". :)

Oh, you'll have to excuse Joe. To him, everyone sings like Sha Na Na. :lol: :lol: :lol:

Joe, I like that. When we can't name the artist that did a song we will just say it was Sha Na Na. From now on, when I don't know the maker of a knife, I'm just going to say Martha Stewart. Funny as hell in context dude.

Well, that seemed kind of facetious. I'm sorry DPD POPO. I was trying to be funny.
Actually, I came up with the remark when I would see carpenters with the color coded, rubberized nail sets that they carried. ("Oh, you got the Martha Stewart model") I guess I tried to shame them into getting rid of the shock absorbing, insulating, shamefull, and distastfull coating on such manly tools.
Nice can opener, though.
