Help identifying 11inch BOBC

Post by young cutlery »

Hello, I’ve had this 11inch button open button close for a while. Swedge blade, tang stamps are rostifrei and Patent. I did some research and I think it’s from the 60s but I don’t know. If anyone could tell me more about it (company, maker, actual age) that would be awesome. Don’t really care about value.
Also, does Bill still work on old knives? This one had the spring ripped out to make it legal back in the prohibition days, I would like another spring put in.
Thanks a lot man,
Young
