Description

A particularly pleasing specimen for its classic and slender lines, characterized by a beautiful light-toned horn handle, a material that shows slight color variations and typical shading of its nature. The mounting is completed by glossy metal elements that confer to the knife a refined and traditional appearance.

The blade in stainless steel features the distinctive tapered profile and measures about 6 cm. The knife reaches an overall length of about 13.5 cm when open.

This is from stock, kept for a long time and today offered as an interesting collectible specimen. The provenance or producer is not known with certainty, therefore the knife is presented without non-documented attributions.
