These are all just photos of the most beautiful hunting and forestry daggers I came across in being a collector. Teach yourself to learn by quality and your mistakes. This all seemed to happen because my wife bought me 32 Winchester rifle when we got married and told me I worked to hard and take time off to go deer hunting with her dad.
The first piece in this showing was purchased from Tom Whittman and I believe the price was $3500.00 way back then. Don't be afraid of price because this one is a knock out and I have never come across a better one.

Ralph. WOW, I have to agree with you about not finding a better one. I thought that i would never see another one like this, but I have the identical piece hanging on my wall. Marked E H Otto GmbH, Curdts Nachf. Solingen who was active from 1895 - 1944. I have the original hanger, but missing the small knife. The Ibex shell just makes the piece speak quality. Thanks you so much for showing. Now i have a mission to find the small skinner for mine after seeing yours. Keep showing more pictures of your collection for always a joy to see. James

It just gets better and better, I do wish we could see some close ups of some of these. This is without doubt a world class collection, truly unbelievable.
