Help identifying a pocket knife. Possibly Middle eastern

Post by M Dunn »

At times i find knives in estate sales that i am unable to identify with research on line and i turn to this forum.
Generally there a members whose vast wealth of knowledge comes through.

this is an interesting knife. It appears to have "middle eastern"?? tang stamps.
2 blades and scissors.

Any information will be appreciated.
Thank you in advance.

Looks like a German made knife for the Turkish market?
In the 1880s Germany made bayonets for the Turkish military. Not sure if they made pocket knives for them as well??

You should check with the store owner Ali at Eight Knives, right here on AAPK. He sells knives made in Persia and could probably tell you what the tang stamp says. Check out his knives too he has some beautiful knives.
