Item #: BNT2378 Our Price: $16.50 |
Details
Very cool old knife with a tin painted handle. I don't know a lot about the piece. It's got some age but not sure date of manufacture. This came in an estate where I have to guess at least 40's.
Looks to be in good condition and the paint looks original. Brown with a white boarder both top and bottom edge. Some is missing due to age and handling use. The mark Whale on the blade is very clear and there is a graphic of an actual Whale. 'Made in Germany' along side. This measures approx. 8.25" long over all, 4.25" handle and 4" blade.
I have not cleaned this or polished. I will leave that to the buyer. Very light piece due to the tin handle. Neat gift idea for the knife collector or for a carver.
Please see photos and enlarge photos as they are a major part of the description. Email with any questions prior to purchase. Thanks for looking.
