Dear all,
I found this Folding Knife many years ago in a farm in France near Paris. I would like to know if you know more about the age and the origins. I have done several searches and also with picture match but can't find anything similar, the particularity of this knife is that it has a brass handle.
I have seen and posted on another post that was titled Bulgarian Knife where one user had a silver handle one, and I was told by a collector that it should be a 18/19th century Balkans Knife (when the Adriatic sea was ruled by the Republic of Venice).
Would appreciate any info. Best regards and happy holiday season.
