All About Pocket Knives

We found this amongst my grandfather's possessions when he passed.
Just curious if anybody has any information on it or knows of its value.
Thanks

Just a guess, c.1930's souvenir, German made. Some folks collect those from all over. I'm not much for values but my guess a pretty good price would be around $25. Who knows, it's a strange market these days.Good luck with it. J.O'.

J.O. gave a good summary. It’s a tourist souvenir knife, not much value except perhaps to someone who has been to the location commemorated by the knife, or to,someone who collects tourist knives. I think I see “Solingen” in the tang stamp (Solingen is a knife making center in Germany where many knife makers operate), but can’t read the rest. If you use the graphite “lead” end of a pencil and rub it across the stamp it will remove some of the tarnish and highlight the letters without damaging the knife. That should make it legible.

I can't help to identify your knife MP, but I'd like to you to AAPK!

Welcome to AAPK!
You have already received sound advice on the knife. I suggest that the greatest value of that knife is sentimental. Whether your Grandfather visited that town in Canada, or bought it just to use as a knife, the fact that it belonged to him is what matters.
I hope that it brings you happy memories to own it!

A very cool knife for you to have, and to AAPK.

It appears to have REICO on the main blade. I believe this would indicate the knife was made in Germany. Here is a link to another REICO knife similar to yours....
