Hi everyone. I just bought a very old balisong knife to add to my collection. The former owner has dated the manufacture between 1880-1900!!! It is marked "Bontgen & Sabin's" and "Patent" on the tang of the blade. Does anyone know anything about this knife, or how to go about finding the actual date of manufacture?

Thanks
 
I must have a picture of that knife and everything you find out about it.
