American Knife Co, Germany 2 blade stag

Post by 95yjinpa »

This was my grandfather’s knife. One of the only things I received of his, his wife felt her kids needed his things more, sorry to get a little salty.
Any idea on age? Yes I have searched the forums, and get mixed info.
The scales are antler. I don’t know if he shaped the blades to these profiles, or they came that way. I do t know it was used because is was sharpened many many times.
I appreciate any insight.

He was a carpet layer. I can imagine this knife cut Mike’s of carpet in in early life, or at least the blade shapes make me believe so.
Thank you for your reply.

The blade profiles look close to original, just some blade loss from repeated sharpening that was done properly.
