Welcome Home...THANK YOU FOR BEING A PART OF OUR COMMUNITY



I inherited this one from my Grandfather, who was an avid fisherman during his lifetime. It has seen much use from the 1920s to when I retired it about 20 years ago.

The handle appears to be green bakelite with red spacers. You can clearly see "Made in Finland" on the blade, but the brand name "AL..." has been worn off. The brand name also may be a model name, since it is in quotes.

It is going to my nephews when I turn my toes up, and I would like to pass on a bit more history.

Thanks.

Hi, I have a reference book, Collectable Knives of Finland.By Lester c Ristinen $35.00. It's a great book. I believe a couple knives like yours is in the book. You can purchase this book at Superior Beads, Duluth, Mn. 1-866-267-1192 or info@superiorbeads.com. George Kokken. He also has a small book The knives of Finland.
Thank you for the lead John.
