just thought it was that pretty you ought to see it twice.

Talk about screwing up a wet dream uh. See if i can get this one right the top knife is a A.W. Wadsworth and sons, germany, the second is another picture of a voos, u.s.a., and the third is a W.G. Moseley cutlery. They are not in the best shape but i got all three of them and a few others at auction. After everyone was done picking out their choice and there is nothing left but the junk "usally"

A cross-over between the pearly gates and corkscrew postings. The corkscrew on this one is most likely for opening smaller medicine or perfume bottles.

Hey...

that is a cool

little knife.

Bill

Maybe for splits of wine...OK, just kidding.

Thanks El Lobo. I thought it was a Graef and Schmidt but the marks don't match the listing for Graef & Schmidt in Goins

. Hopefully, there is someone out there who can help me identify the maker. See below. Thanks.

S-K,

GOOD NEWS:

G R S Solingen is listed in Goins...on page 115.

BAD NEWS:

No other information whatsoever...

Maybe someone will recognize the logo. (Cricket Forever?????).

Hey El Lobo...thanks for looking into this for me

. There is no 'Made in Germany' anywhere. I'd say that the mark on the reverse looks like a jockey hat or old time baseball cap with pinstripes (perhaps if it was from NY) and maybe a whip

. It is not quite a figure 8 on its side. The lines don't connect on the very right side top of the 8.

I was just kidding you about the Cricket part, of course.

It does look a little like a Jockey's cap and whip...interesting thought.

When Goins listed something the way this was listed, it may have been just from memory or the like, so I'm not sure it would HAVE to read exactly...or this might not be the same marking at all.

Good luck, though.

Bill

Good morning everyone. I am hoping that someone out there can help me with the tang stamps that I posted yesterday as I have not made much progress with identifying the maker

. have a great day
