Vintage Solingen Hunting Knife
This is a vintage hunting knife manufactured in Solingen, Germany, and featuring a unique integrated telescope within the handle. The knife boasts a steel blade and a black composition handle, likely Bakelite or similar material, with a distinctive gold-coloured emblem. The DBGM (Deutsches Gebrauchsmuster) mark indicates a registered design, suggesting a level of innovation and quality in its construction. This knife is a fascinating example of early 20th-century craftsmanship and ingenuity.
Condition and Collectibility
The knife exhibits signs of age and use, with patina to the blade and some wear to the handle. The telescope appears to be present, though its functionality is not assessed. This knife would be of interest to collectors of vintage knives, hunting memorabilia, or those fascinated by unusual and innovative designs. The DBGM mark and the integrated telescope make this a particularly desirable piece for those seeking unique and historically significant items.
