Found this at a car boot sale at the weekend. It's in very good condition apart from the fact its missing its bale. It is stamped Rich. A. Herder Solingen on the tang of the secondary blade. I've seen knives like this in books and know they come in a variety of designs depicting sporting scenes etc. Anyway glad to have found this one and thought I'd show it, maybe someone can tell me a bit more about it. Id like to say the selection of tools on the reverse side are specifically Farriers tools but they seem more general than that. I think there's a designated thread for these thrift store yard sale type of finds but I couldn't find it so, anyway, here it is, hope its of interest. :)

The tool side looks just like a Coursolle bricollage. Bric-something anyway. But they're French, of course.
