Has anyone heard of this name? Christians Solingen Cut

Post by chevycannontexasjack »

I was hoping to find out some info on this knife, maybe some history or how old! I listed pics of the tang stamp, I'm not familiar with alot of German cutlery!

Older knives are like women, they are beautiful, pricey, and rarely do you find the good ones!

There is a section in Jim Parker's last book "The Collector's Encyclopedia" on Christians.He had a bunch of so called "Factory Finds"he was selling at the time if I remember correctly.

Parker seemed to have the knack for coming up with long lost knives in some factory in Germany or wherever.
