This is an older and gently used mini Nicker with a Stag Antler Handle with a Bone 'Edelweiss' Flower inset in to the Stag Handle.

Comes in its original Leather and Metal Nicker Sheath.

Made in Solingen Germany Jagdnicker Knife from the early 50's but no date stamp or maker on the knife.

Rare and collectable knife and made in keeping with the German Nicker pattern and which we believe was made in the 1950's

The Edelweiss in German and European Tradition.

Leontopodium nivale, commonly called edelweiss (German Alpen-Edelweiß, a mountain flower belonging to the daisy or sunflower family Asteraceae and It is a scarce, short-lived flower found in remote mountain areas and has been used as a symbol for alpinism, for rugged beauty and purity associated with the Alps and Carpathians, and as a national symbol, especially of Romania, Austria, Bulgaria, Mongolia, Slovenia, Switzerland, and Italy. According to folk tradition, giving this flower to a loved one is a promise of dedication. (Source Wikipedia)

It is in good overall condition with no dings etc in the blade but it has been sharpened which would clean up if required but we have decided to keep it in original condition

Blade length approx 2 1/4 inch  (approx. 6cm).
Total length: 5 1/4 inches (approx. 13.5cm)
Blade thickness: 3mm
German collectors knife comes with the original Nicker Sheath made from leather with metal fittings. 

Images form part of the description and show the actual Knife and only one available.

This knife was made in Germany in the early 1950's

This knife was wholly made in Germany and is rare.

It has been sharpened with marks on the blade (Which could polish out) a few storage/Handling marks which can be seen in the images.

The handle is aged Deer Antler and it is 70+ years old, the Metal Pommel is a bit loose and the sheath has a few age signs but is in good condition with stitching and metal fittings intact.

Would make a nice piece on the Cheese Board or in a collection of quality German made knives.
