Graef & Schmidt Bone Stockman Question
Posted: Sat Feb 25, 2012 9:54 pm
I have already posted this knife in another thread under finds of the day with several other that I picked up in a group. Sorry for the repost, but I think it should have been posted here in the first place.
It's a Graef & Schmidt bone handled stockman. Here's what I looked it up in "Levine's Guide..." the best that I can decipher it dates either from between 1940-1952 for Welkut. However, the guide says if made for Welkut it was made in USA, this one is marked Germany. There were earlier knives made in USA/Germany for Henckels between 1883-1948. So I am confused on that note. I have also done a advanced search on ebay and found nothing like it that has recently sold to get a general value.
Does anyone have one of these and know it's value? Am I correct with the dating being between 1940-1952?
