- Description
- Two kitchen knives with steel blades and wooden handles - the handles have three brass studs each. One knife has a thicker blade that curves slightly and has a small raised reinforcement before the handle - stamped on one side near the handle is a head wearing a hat and scarf that has “LA DUROLLIENNE” written on it. The other knife’s blade has been sharpened so much it appears to be less than half of its original width - faded remnants of something stamped on the blade is visible, but illegible.
