Gerlach pocket knife, looking for information

Post by mobius6 »

hi, i found an older knife but i have not been able to find a similar one anywhere on the web
does anyone know something about this knife?
Only thing i can find is that it is Polish and properly from around mid 1950s
the blade is quite oddand the other end is not sharp (and i have no idea about the purpose)

Hello and ::welcome:: to AAPK! It's a Grafting/budding knife, maybe made by Queen but not sure. Someone will drop in soon and dissect it for you. :wink:

Welcome to AAPK.

It's a grafting/budding knife but I doubt it was made by Queen. Looks more like it was made in Poland (tang stamp says so) fashioned after Victorinox.
