Please ID Antique Coke Bottle Knife

[JoyF]

I'd like to find out the maker of this knife. The maker marking is nearly entirely gone (see pic). On other side of tang is either 612346 or 612345. Any info is appreciated.

Looks like someone repinned it (possibly with an iron nail)

Likely looked like this tang stamp at one time.

The Robeson 612246 is not a common knife. Don't see many of them.

Agree it's been repinned.

Here is my example. Not in great condition, but decent.
