Overview
This beautiful dagger is marked PPR. That stands for Peter Paul Rosenkaimer who is a son of Sigfried Rosenkaimer who has owned Linder since the 1950s.Peter hand turns the handles (bone) and assembles the knives. Fittings on the piece and the sheath are cast nickel silver and show extreme detail.
The blades are all hand-ground and hand-polished by an elderly cutler who used to work for Linder and has been retired for many years. Linder had him make a limited number of these complicated kris dagger blades before he retired.
The blades were forged in Solingen by Otto Wester (smiths who no longer exist for many years now).
This is a lovely piece of knife art that will add to any collection. Mint condition.
