Up for sale is a vintage fixed-blade knife, measuring 9 ¼ inches overall, with a 5-inch clip point carbon steel blade and wood scales pinned to a full tang. The bolster appears to be nickel silver, and the handle features three inlays—a metal crown emblem and two brass medallions, each depicting a small standing figure (possibly military or colonial-themed).

The blade is stamped:

GESETZLICH GESCH.

(A German marking meaning “legally protected”—commonly used on export goods from the early 1900s.)

Features:

• Clip point carbon steel blade – 5 inches

• Full tang with nickel silver bolster

• Wood handle scales with decorative inlays

• Stamped “GESETZLICH GESCH” on blade

• Estimated to be from the 1920s–1940s, possibly made in Solingen, Germany for export

This is a solid, well-made knife with some mystery and history. It may have been intended for military, scouting, or colonial use, and the decorative inlays give it a distinct and collectible character. The knife shows age-appropriate wear and patina but remains structurally sound.

A rare and unique piece—perfect for collectors of pre-WWII European cutlery, militaria, or early 20th-century German export knives.

Ships fast and packed securely.
