All About Pocket Knives

This fancy 2 7/8" Pearl 6 blade 'Personal Care' knife was very expensive in it's day, out of range of most knife buyers.
I don't know the age but will guess at before WW II and maybe as far back as c. WW I .
This knife is solid with surprising heft. You know you have a superbly made tool in your hand. The walk & talk of all blades is just as it should be. All blades are easy to access and open smoothly, no threat to the nails.
This knife is an example of Henckels at their best but the poor photography does not fully convey this.

Beautiful knife Roland. I have seen similar renditions of this pattern but not as nice as yours. A lot of the ones I've seen had chips near the edges or cracks.

Thanks Mike. Do you agree with my age range of WW I to WW II ? Are there any features in the fancy pearl multiblades that can be used in estimating age ?

Thanks Harold.
Pictures are not adequate to experience this knife. It's the rare knife that you hold in your hand, eyes closed, and just by feel you say to yourself: 'wow, what a fine knife'.

Beautiful knife, amazing it made it through with no chips or cracks!

KJ it seems to me that many of the old Henckels knives are a statement of pure quality. This knife certainly is.

KJ: That's a real trophy!
