Description
Anton Wingen JR Carving Set. My wife and I inherited this carving set from her grandparents. He was a pilot in the airforce and was stationed all over the world. I think it's from around WW1 era based on information I found here:

the set is still in the original box and in very good shape. A good cleaning should see them excellent.

Stainless Steel and Horn (Stag Grips). "In this early period, Wingen had a great influence over revolutionizing forging processes and shaping technological advancements with injection/compression molding techniques." So the handles could be something other then horn.
