This is a Snappy keychain switchblade made by the Colonial Knife Co of Providence, RI in the late 1950s. You can tell it's a later one by the large domed button and bolsters. The blade is stamped SNAPPY COLONIAL PROV USA, but only the SNAPPY is clear and legible. It was designated the model #1600CB.
