Some really interesting knives being posted, this has turned into a great thread :thumbup:

Someone please post a Grohmann to add Canada to the mix.

Not a Grohmann - great knives - but see post 21 :thumbup:

That Hoof /Trotter Knife is really bizarre Duncan! Is it from a Stag or Wild Boar? Lot of workmanship in it though, thanks for posting.:thumbup::thumbup:

Will Sir, Its a deer foot my friend, I have owned many of the Fixed Blade type, and seen a few of the Folders - but not of this Quality - This knife is incredibly well made - with such an assertive snap! - very solid knife - although it does not look it, quite expensive - in fact it was Dear!!!

Just received these vintages I should have fetched at the La Monnerie show when the gasket let me down.
Stag

Limonadier

A forerunner of multi-tools (certainly for export, as for some obscure reason, cm/inches rulers were prohibited until not so long ago.

Pretty wild cigar-cutter.
Does the screw-driver on the first one have a second function?

Beautiful JP, I particularly like the stag :thumbup:

No, I don't think there is.

Thank you. It is typical of the sort of knives made in Thiers in the 50/60s. I guess it will spend a lot of time in my pocket!

JP That Shadow Stag multi is a beauty! Real pocket treat!

Brett I wish my Moki were in that bone type It's an amazingly well made knife but mine is let down by cheap Red Jigged bone :barf::grumpy: I don't dare trust anybody to rehandle it as I can't see them replicating its stellar construction....
