I wonder if anyone has information about this little knife. It says "St. Lawrence Cutlery Germany" on the tang.

Re: St. Lawrence Cutlery, Germany
Welcome to the forums! Although the name of the maker isn't familiar the handles look like it may have been a knife designed for Shriner's members.The hat with the tassel(I think it is called a fez)and the sword and star in the crescent are Shriner's emblems.Datewise I would probably say sometime after WWI and before WWII. Value is always subjective;I.e.: how much you want to sell it for and how much someone is willing to pay.

Thank you, Knife7Knut. The link with the Shriners/Masons is what I suspected. The time frame looks correct as well. I think I overpaid for it, but it's a cool knife.

If it is what you wanted and are happy with it the price was just right.
