Re: Solingen Germany No 231 Knife
I have one of these- bought it in Iceland in 1965- would like to know its value now - it has never been used and is in mint condition with sheath
Re: Solingen Germany No 231 Knife
That logo is a Keystone one in new condition with the box like yours sold on ebay for $273 in 2012. Used and with out the box they bring about half that. Hope that helps!
