Hen & Rooster Question

Post by BillyH »

I have this old pen knife my wife’s grandmother gave to me many years ago. It’s got the Hen & Rooster logo on the blade but no soligen (SP). The thing is a sweet little knife that is quality. Did smaller knives like this come with just the logo.

Welcome to the forum Billy. To answer your question, yes, they do come with just the H&R logo and no Solingen. I have some like that in my collection. Not sure what the criteria for that is, it’s usually on these smaller pen knives.
