Wonderful large 25" Scandinavian Flax Knife dated signed and dated 1862..

Description

We acquired this Flax knife at a South Florida auction last year with several other early Swedish/ Scandinavian pieces. It is dated 1862 and has the initials EMD carved into it. A small area of loss at the tip of blade and at the hilt, indicates past remedied insect damage, which we think is authentic to the piece. The damage is very minimal, but we always like to be on the same page as our customers.
