    Luftwaffe?swiss Army Knife

    Help from the Luftwaffe collectors please

    I own a pocket knife that has the following implements

    One side

    Blade which is RbNr'd
    Saw blade
    can opener

    the other side

    Cork screw
    Hoof Pick


    Grips are deep red brown bakelite, it also has a lanyard ring.

    Someone told me it might be a flight crew/survival piece. The RbNr indicates it was an issue rather than private purchase piece.
    Very simi;lar to some of the moder swiss army knives

    Thanks
    In advance

      Mark,
      In "Luftwaffe Vs RAF" (vol.2 page 96) they show one more or less as you descibe - if you could post a pic (or send it to me to post fsaez@noos.fr) it will help.

        Francois,

        The knife was sold to me as an officers knife for £30. Someone before said it may be luftwaffe. Sorry I do not own a digital camera so I can not provide scans.

        Thanks

              Francois,

              Many thanks the knife is identical to the one you posted, so I guess it's a Luftwaffe piece?

              Many thanks
