Re: ... A RARE BIRD,....
That is a beautiful looking switchblade. 
Love the horn and its in great condition for a 70 year old knife .
I have never seen the Dove and Olive branch symbol either ,but it jusr looks great on that bayo blade .I wonder if its a specific town mark like the gondola on the venezias ,never heard of a maker using it ,but lets see what others come up with .
Thanks for sharing it .

Well spotted Kilgar
I forgot about those 2 some years back ,looks like nobody knew of the maker like you say back then either.
.
They are real good looking knives,the Dove must mean something ,hope we find out .

That's a great find Dana,
Appreciate your sharing that beauty.
Can you share the size? And any idea of what period?
