Vintage 1970s Swiss Army knives lot of 3 pieces raw metal look

AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

This lot consists of three Swiss-style folding knives, with an antique appearance, as shown in the photo. Each has an elongated shape characteristic of classic multi-tool knives, with a simple, matte-finish metal body. Two of the knives are equipped with a suspension ring on the end, allowing them to be easily attached to a keychain or chain. The visible surfaces are marked by a uniform patina, attesting to their age and prior use.

The three knives display a riveted structure typical of 1970s production, as suggested by their general appearance and the clues provided in the keywords. The surfaces show some signs of wear, scratches, and superficial marks, typical of old utilitarian objects. The unpolished metallic finish gives them a raw and authentic look, with no apparent decoration or engraving on the visible faces.

Visible accessories include, for each knife, at least one main blade folded into the handle. No markings, logos, or inscriptions are apparent on the photographed side, but the shape and arrangement of the elements correspond to the standards of vintage Swiss multi-tool knives. The presentation on a geometric-patterned fabric highlights their general condition and the silver tone of the metal.

The presence of slight oxidation traces and micro-scratches attests to prolonged use and robust manufacturing, consistent with older production. The set offers a utilitarian and retro look, typical of folding knives from this period.

Condition

Used items sold as is. The knives show visible signs of wear: scratches, use marks, patina on the metal, and some superficial oxidation spots. The mechanisms appear complete on the visible side, but the detailed functionality of each blade cannot be verified without an internal view.

Did you know? So-called "Swiss" knives became popular worldwide after World War II, particularly due to their versatility and robustness. The term originally referred to the multi-tool knives supplied to the Swiss army, but it extended to many civilian models from the 1960s-1970s onwards.
