I got this at an estate auction. I would love to know its origin. It reads CAST ( not Case) on the blade. It measures 2.75" long when closed. Thanks for any help
Interesting pocket knife maybe silver? Origin? | ||

It looks Middle Eastern to me. Nothing useful comes up when I type in CAST knife blads, pocket knife or something similar.
Yes, Thank you. I do believe there are tobacco leaves, and bananas on this as well. Thanks
Id be looking for that cathedral .... in South America somewhere ????
Great idea, I'll try that. Thanks
Sure would be a hellava lot easier to figure out what the picture is if it was horizontal and right-side-up! The fruit is bananas and a pineapple. The mark would be "Cast Steel", archaic now but still used in many third worlds countries well into the 20th C. to indicate better quality steel. The handles are coined (die-stamped) aluminum. (If it not marked "silver", "Sterling", or "925" it's not silver). The cathedral is in Havana, Cuba.
Thanks Uncle RON .... it occurred to me yesterday that it might have been Cuba. Totally topical !!!!!
La Catedral de la Virgen María de la Concepción Inmaculada de La Habana.
And is the grand boulevard the Paseo de Marti ???
Thanks, Uncle Ron. I did upload the pictures the right way, but they appeared like above?! Thanks for the good info.
