Help - I search AH knife steak Adolf Hitler

[rbminis]

Do you have any info or thoughts about my other question: Was a "steak knife" of any description part of either the AH Formal (State) or Informal table service? I haven't seen anything that resembled what we would call a steak knife today, but you have done much more research than I have!

Thanks again, my friend,

This is my opinion only,
The steel in the blades of that era were of a higher quality than the cutlery made today. If you sharpen a cutlery knife blade of that era, it could easily cut a steak or tomato. I currently use one in my every day sandwich making, and eating requirements. The cutlery produced today can not be sharpened to do anything really.
