Leather Knife & Draw Knife

[lptools]

Hello, Here are a couple pieces from the weekend. The leather knife is small, just wondering if it was made by former owner, or manufactured? The draw knife is giving me eye strain!! _ _ _ _ Tool Co. The only four letters I can think of are  OHIO, but that doesn't look right.  Regards, Lou

I want to guess Boos Tool Co, but that looks more like an S than a B.

Hello, Papaw. I agree, it looks like SOOS, but the B could be worn. When you flip it over, the letters look like numerals, but you can still read TOOL CO!!!  I think BOOS went by BOOS Tool Corp?? I need to get some better eyes than mine up close on this one. Thanks, Lou

First letter is for sure an 'S', then 2 'O's' and what looks to me like an 'N'. That being said, I’ve never heard of a 'SOON TOOL CO.' Maybe early Asian?

If it is "Soon," since we don't know about it, the company's no doubt out of business, which makes it the late Soon Company.

"...the late Soon Company"

Next we’ll have the Soon...LATE Co.
