Old German Rigger's Knife??

I just bought this old black-wooden handled knife, it has a blade on one side and a spike on the other that locks out. There is a loop of brass that acts as a release for the spike once it is locked out. On the blade is marked "BETA BOS'N, Germany", with STAINLESS on the other side of the blade. Blade and spike are a little over 3 inches, whole knife over 7 inches. It looks old, but still works and looks good. Anybody know anything about this knife? Any background would be helpful, kindof a neat little knife. Thanks.
