Lot=3 generations of France's regional knives PRADEL Folding Multi-Tools 1919-1980s

Pradel's pocket folding knife is France's historic knife. They began to be called after the name Pradel, who were the first in the home workshop to produce folding knives. Subsequently, the area (village) began to be called Pradel. The very first knives were made for sale to the local population and there was no need to label them. With the advent of other manufacturers of the same products in different regions of France, local workshops in the villages of Pradel began to label their products with the name and stigma. There were more workshops in Pradel and they began to use brands individually. One thing remained without changing the name of the area. Commercial relations with other regions and with neighboring countries have generated many different stigma. Gentlemen, I offer three versions of knives, the production of which was definitely in France! These knives are the civilian version. Without stigma, the oldest of these three. The number of instruments gives rise to revivals for that time. Carbon steel overlays of a horn handle characteristic of that time used brass plates between the canvases. A corkscrew of a whole piece of metal. Approximate years 1919-1930. The second Pradel knife with an old stamp is carbon steel with a chrome coating of canvases. Circa 1935-1945. The third knife of the fisherman Pradel Inoh is an association with the Mitchel brand of cooperation with the manufacturer of fishing gear in 1980. The status of the knives is estimated from the photographs they are very detailed and are part of my description.

The fisherman's knife was made in the USSR in 1970-1980. The handle covers are made of blue plastic with a fish pattern. The overlays are securely fixed and have an original factory stamp on them. Otherwise, the metal knife design is coated with layers of stainless steel. One fish cleaning blade. Another for cutting fish. A bottle opener and a fork of what a fishing hook to get out of the mouth of a fish. Of the disadvantages, there is a little rust on the metal partial loss of coating.
