One of my friends has an old vintage knife that he wanted me to look up for him. He does not have a computer or access to the internet and wanted me to see what I could find out. The knife is in nice condition and is marked "Premium stock knife" on one blade, another blade is marked Germany and inscribed with "EARNST G AHREUS", and the smallest blade has a small eagle with an arrow. He said that he has had it for years and was just curious about it since he has never seen another one like it. There are not any other markings that he can see. I tried an internet search but couldn't find this knife. Has anyone seen one of these and what can you tell me about it? Many thanks to any FReeper that can help.
It’s a lovely knife, and who knows about the value? So far we haven’t found even a close match. So far, we know it’s rare. ; - )
Great pix BTW. I can almost feel the handle.
Need more detail-!!
Just let me know what details you need. I have his knife and can look at it more closely if needed.
The obverse of the upper image. There should be some sort of markings at the base of the blade on the other side. Also, let me see the base of the handle on both sides.
