This NON-locking folder is 9 1/4" open,5 3/16
closed. "Hand Forged" is etched on the clip
point blade. Additionally, the blade reads
"J. A. Henckels.....Germany" on one side,
and "1922" on the other. It has nickle silver
bolsters fore & aft, and double brass liners.
It has brown, grainy wood scales with four
pins attaching them on each side.
I'm only interested in "tactical" type folders so I don't have any collector's
books for reference. However, I did take it
to two gun&knife shows...and nobody could
find it listed anywhere. Can anyone help
identify this knife as to age, collectibility
and value(good used condition)? It was
included in a small collection I bought from
a man in his 50's who told me he bought it
when he was stationed in Germany in the
service.
