Which JA Henckels knife is this?

Post by BMurr »

A sentimental knife to me, I'm guessing 1960's but does anyone here know which model or if there is a catalogue somewhere that I can trawl through? Also, the short blade, is it the remnants of a broken blade or is it supposed to be like that?

Your assessment of age may be right. I’d guess 1960s to 1980s. Likely made for Henckels on contract by Victorinox but the can opener blade is unlike others I have seen. ::shrug:: it has the D.B.G.M. stamp on it, which is the German designation for patented. Maybe someone knows how to date it from that. ::shrug::

I agree it’s a broken blade.

Thanks for those replies, I'll have a trawl through the above link and post back any info I find which might help others in the future with same model. Great site this, more of a vintage motorcycle guy usually but the knives are also very interesting and more affordable plus two or three aren't going to fill up a shed. :D

Saw this one with similar can opener, states 1960's/70's vintage. Seems like same rivet pattern but different colour too. https://www.allaboutpocketknives.com/ca ... tyle-knife
