Frary pocket knife with whistle - circa 1880

[Tedyoh]

This one, for it's age, was in such good shape I'd figure I'd post it, (other than the whistle being broke off) found the patent as well.....there's not much info out there I could find on this knife, if anyone had any info they'd like to share I'd love to hear it.....all of my other pocket knives have come out of the ground looking like big rusty bolts. Cleaned the dirt from the whistle and it sounds great.
