This is one that has me a bit puzzled, it is made by Booth Bros, it 2 5/8" closed. The patent number is 24630. What makes the knife unique is that to open, you press the small blade to open the large one and the large one to open the small blade (if you look at the image, you will see an indentation on the top for each blade). It is a switchblade and in perfect operating condition. I have never seen one like this before and I'm having trouble determining the value.

Do the blades fully open or pop up part way to then be opened manually?

Thanks for the new information. The knife works perfectly, hard snap each blade fully opens.
