Vintage antique folding knives 70s lot of 3 retro models Anti

AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

This lot consists of three antique folding knives, displayed on a light, textured surface. All three models feature the elongated shape typical of pocket knives, with a simple, utilitarian design characteristic of the 1970s. The brand "Ancie" mentioned in the keywords does not appear on the visible parts, but is included here in accordance with the original description.

The first knife, at the top, has a polished metallic appearance with a pronounced patina and visible traces of oxidation on the handle. Its surface shows silver reflections and a few small dark spots, testifying to its age and previous use. The rivets are apparent and slightly raised, highlighting the traditional craftsmanship.

The central knife stands out with a marbled finish handle, in shades of gray, beige, and sea green. It also features clearly visible rivets and a blade folded inside the handle. Its particular hue evokes the synthetic or composite materials used in the 70s for this type of object, without being able to confirm the exact material in the absence of explicit indication.

The third knife, at the bottom, sports a matte metallic finish, with a more uniform appearance. It has an additional tool folded next to the main blade, visible at the end of the handle. Both tools are well integrated into the knife body, recalling the versatility of vintage multi-tool knives. No markings or logos are legible on the visible faces of these three pieces.

The knives are aligned on a stand and photographed handle-side, allowing their general condition to be appreciated. Each shows signs of use: scratches, small marks, and a patina of age. No cracks or breaks are visible on the handles.

Condition

Used items, sold as is. Traces of wear, scratches, and patina visible on all knives. Blades and tools not deployed in the photo; the exact condition of the mechanisms is not guaranteed.

Did you know? Multi-tool folding knives experienced significant growth in Europe in the 60s and 70s, particularly for their practicality during outdoor activities. Their simple and robust design was favored for hiking, camping, or daily use, long before the rise of more sophisticated modern models.
