I inherited this blade from my grandfather. It appears to be a Barlow style.

It's an old bone folder that he may have brought over from England with him after the war. The logo on the blade appears to be a hogs head with the letters "NDURE" stamped on it. It may have been "ENDURE" but a letter has been worn off over the years.

Any help in identifying this is mutely appreciated.

Endure with the boar's head was a trademark of Joseph / J J Beal and Sons of Sheffield.

P.S. It's a sheepsfoot rope knife. It's certainly old, but I don't know enough about the company's history to date it, but late 19th - early 20th century is a good bet.
