I came upon this really pretty pocketknife and I just wish I could know more about it. Its got a smooth handle with brown floral etched into it. At the bottom of the handle are what look to be the numbers and letters 412p 50k. If anyone can give me more information about this knife that would be so great. I know its probably nothing special, but my curiosity is killing me! Thanks to anyone who can help!

Welcome to AAPK.
It would be a BIG help if you could post a picture or two showing the knife with the blades open and showing any stampings or etches on the blades, or the base of the blades.

Two years later and I still have no idea when this knife was made or who made it. I have attached three more pictures. Note that it is a multi-tool knife with nail-clippers, a straight razor, nail file, can opener etc. I could only get those three open for the pictures. On the knife and straight razor there is the number 31 etched into the blade close to the handle.
Any info is welcome.

It`s a manicure knife, possibly made in Italy. Hard to say for sure where though

I think it may be Russian. During the days of communisn they used to mark items like that with the selling price. That knife originally cost 12 Rubles 50 kopecks.
