Czechoslovak mini folder, unknown date.

[Nephilim]

I don't think I've posted this one before. I have this tiny folder marked Czechoslovakia

One blade, a little spoon and a plastic pick thing. I think the other tools are for cleaning fingernails. Scales are also some sort of plastic, thin and flat. All the metal parts are very thin stampings. It does have a sort of backspring, at least it stops it from overextending. The edge is completely unsharpened, basically the same width as the back of the blade. Only marking is CZECHO-SLOVAKIA on the blade.
Have any of you seen a similar knife? I'm not sure if this is from the interwar period or the communist era, but it has to be one of the two. Thoughts?

The knife has an earwax spoon and a toothpick. And of course the pen blade, probably for cleaning fingernails etc.
Basically a grooming knife. Someone familiar with the tmeframe history of Czechoslovakia may know about when it was made as that stamp would tell. Might be able to just Google it.

Yeah, I'm finding listing of people selling similar knives, same marks mark. They describe them as being from the 1930s, but I haven't found any more specific information of the manufacturer.

Oh, I did post this before! My apologies! I was going through a few knives in my collection that I hadn't catalogued yet, and I thought I hadn't posted about this one. I should have double checked my own forum history first. Well, thanks.

Oh.....

You're welcome.

Yes, I probably have a dozen of them. For the most part they are a low grade, dare I call it a knife?, very flimsy and will fall apart without much use.

I have found one that has horn handles and does have a good carbon steel blade with a back spring on that blade, but they are the exception.
