Press Button Knife Co Medium double Sterling Silver Satyr switchblade knife made by the Press Button Knife Co of Walden, NY sometime between 1892 and 1923. It was designated pattern number 110SS and measures 3 3/8" closed and 7 1/8 inches open with nickel silver liners and buttons. The blades are mostly full with light scratches and a little peppering. Both blades are stamped PRESS BUTTON KNIFE CO NY and the backsides are blank which means this knife was likely made after 1912. The scales are Sterling Silver with a SATYR on the back scale, often called Old Man Winter by collectors and the front has advertising "Compliments of Home Insurance Co NY" and they are in very nice condition. The knife works well with both blade tips below liners closed, open fully and lock open well. Small blade has some kickback which means the spring is a little strong so the blade doesn't have a chance to catch and lock the first time and bounces back. EX condition.
