    Thanks Richie- the blade is marked with the WKC 'king's head’ do anyone know when they used that mark ?

    Kohl I think was considered more as a retailer who stopped operations circa the early 1880's. With WKC a major manufacturer working in the same period and later with the 'king's head' trademark. Best Regards, Fred
