Not sure I completely trust Bark River on the scales i.d. of the first knife, but I guess it doesn't matter.

It is the second volume (first has been lost) of 1909 illustrated edition of "Mire megvénülünk" (By the Time We Grow Old), 1865 (in English: Debts of Honor) by the prolific Mór Jókai. In French litterature he could be compared to Balzac, though imho much easier to read.
"The New Lord" is one of my favorite book.

Looking up this author's works, I think you mean 'The New Landlord'. I hope so - I'm checking it out
