Corn knife

[dano91]

I found this 1920's--1930's Corn knife this week, and have learned a little about it, but would like any input on it if available.
It's ,marked WESTER BROS GERMANY, and has Preban Elephant Ivory scales.
I'm thinking it was given out as a promotion by a seed company, but not sure.
Anyone ever seen one? It's a very nice knife, razor sharp, and beautifully made.

And I found a pair of Ram's horn's LOL...I know weird week but at least I found something.
Think I'll make a pair of pistol grips with them, or something.

Pretty close, I think.
Very nice find.

I like the Rams horns too. The only Rams Horns we have here in Michigan are a restaurant chain of the same name...come to think of it, I did get a petrified omelet there once...
