Gentlemen,
I am pleased to present to you a J. A. Henckels from three different eras. Here we go!
A knife with a single carbon steel blade and horn scales. Excellent blade action and click. I estimate it was made in the 1920s-30s.
The knife features the Mercedes-Benz logo and yellow celluloid scales. The stainless steel blades have excellent action and click. According to my prediction, it was made in the 50s
A gentleman's knife with guilloche in a sheath. Made entirely of stainless steel, it bears the Friodur hallmark. Brand new, unused. I believe it was made between 1965 and 1975.
I would be very grateful if our esteemed experts would take the time to consult their reference books and catalogs to confirm or refute my guesses about the age.
Once again, I would like to emphasize that Henckels is Henckels; the quality of workmanship and mechanics speak for themselves.
