SOLD PENDING DELIVERY Pre-war or wartime 7 1/2 inch overall length, oiled carbon steel hunting knife by ARMESO, Solingen, Germany; tight and firm stacked leather handle; tight and firm pommel nut; keen edge and the original blade profile. Deep Nordic style aftermarket sheath with a heavy welt and tip drainage hole for secure carry. ARMESO was one of the smaller pre-war Solingen knifemakers, and before and during the Second World War produced a small number daggers for the German military, but mostly, they made hunting knives. With a 3 1.2 inch blade, this would have been a bird, trout, small game and light deer knife. The rounded back on the blade makes it very comfortable to use, and the thick, modern sheath makes it comfortable and safe to carry. Keep it oiled and grease the sheath occasionally and it will last another 100 years. Located in Saint John, NB; shipping available at cost.
