A little J.A. Henckles

Post by Fishmagician »

This a real beauty in my humble opinion! She's only 2 7/8 inches long. The handle material appears to be horn, and the file work is very fine. The handle material is broken just past the forward pin. She's tight and light. The clip blade is marked with two joined stick figures, I know I've seen them before but I can't place them, over

Those are beuts! I like to carry smaller knives at work, since the most they will ever do is to open a box or envelope, so that size is perfect. Thanks for sharing.
