Make sure you write down its history, maybe with a pic of the two of you.that way the cousins will never lose the true value of it

believe it or not....  my dad carried this knife in his pocket.always and everywhere he went from 1960 till he died in 1998 and left it to me

it was in use for almost 40 yearsand is still in fine condition !! ( he took good care of it )

the subtle engravings in the handle make this "holy" knife also a beautyful piece of german steel

this very well made knife has no manufacturer stamps.... it only has  "rostfrei" on the largest blade and an "r" on the rest of the tools
