Oh wow, those are interesting pieces. Nice. :)

There are 26 models in total, one each for the Cantons of Switzerland.

Here is another photo.  :salute:
The main blades are etched and go through the blade.

Many thanks.  :salute:
I don't know why the early models had basic etchings?  :think:
I prefer the newer etchings that are all the way through the blade.

Very nice score!  :tu:


The earlier ones had a shallower blade etching, but made up for it with very detailed wood inlays on the handles. The knives were release at the rate of one a year, and were limited to 100 pieces each. I managed to get mine from a long-time collector who had lived in Switzerland for a number of years and was getting out of the hobby.

Think one of our Swiss members (jaydar?, Victor?) has most of them. At only a hundred copies each its surprising any make it out of Switzerland.
