Circa 1888-1927. Marked Krusius Brothers Germany on one side of the tang and KB extra with a circle around it on the other side. The blades are tight and the springs are strong. Does not appear to have been used. The blades are full and have a mirror polish finish. There are a few small spots of rust. In wonderful condition for its age. No chips or cracks in the pearl. Comes in a soft pouch.

How It Works
This is a consignment sales website. Folks send in knives to us, we clean them up, research them, photograph them, set a value, and sell them for you (handling all shipping, inquiries, returns, etc.)
A.G. Russell called our pricing a Dutch Auction. The price is set by our researcher, and then every month it is available it goes down in price by 10%.
Prices are reduced on the Wednesday closest to the 15th of the month. New knives are added usually twice a month.
