WW2 Italian trench art letter opener with a risque handle. The naked woman was a popular motif from this area!
This was made from aircraft aluminum and is also typical. The piece measures just over 9 inches in length and is nicely cast with a polished "blade".
The blade has the typical punch stamped "Sicily 1944" markings that are often found on these and aluminum cast Stuka planes.
