I picked up this little French made pen knife, 2 and 3/4 inches OAL closed with a pen blade and a manicure blade. It had a broken spring, so I replaced the spring with one from a pen I had with a broken blade. The blade is engraved Air France and it has their winged seahorse logo on the handle. The master blade is tang stamped Made in France. It is all metal with a bail.

Nice little piece
Probably something gifted to the crew at some point

Just purchased this Lierande James at a nice discount and will have it in a few days. I’m not sure of the true color as the website shows it a brighter violet. It’s a powder coated epoxy stainless steel 14c28n at 4 3/8” closed. Any further info is appreciated. This is a photo from Lierande.com

Someone I showed it to thought it may have been gifted to passengers who flew on the Concorde, but I think that may be just speculation.
