"12 Knives, Mons 1700-1730, Sterling Silver Handles And Original Steel Blades"
Extremely rare series of 12 Louis XIV or Regence-period knives with their original steel blades. Each blade is marked "Mons" and a crowned R cutler's mark. The shape of the handles is typical for Mons production from the beginning of the eighteenth century. They are absolutely identical and constitute a real series of twelve, still possessing their original blades, which makes them absolutely rare. The handles are sterling silver but are not hallmarked.
