Samples marked ,"Disston U.S.A., Beardmore Patent, No. 1563064." A sample has also be found Marked w/ Trimble & Fink Co. U.S.A., Patented Nov.24, 1925, Following information supplied by, Howard Mironov. It reminds me a lot of the Trimble & Fink 1928 Patent 1,688,181.Based on exterior appearance they are virtually identical--handle design, shank design with the split end, function, and knurled ring adjuster. Beardmore is listed in Annapolis and Fink in Baltimore--about 30 miles apart--so there might be the question of whether their inventor/ business skills crossed paths. |
