Crown stag handled carving knife with matching two tined fork from the dean of custom knife makers, William Scagel (1873-1963). This knife is classic Scagel with 9" slight up-swept point blade, angled brass guard, and stacked leather, hard rubber, and brass spacers in the handle with crown stag pommel. Left side of the blade is marked “W. SCAGEL / HAND MADE” and has his Kris logo on the left ricasso. This two piece carving set with stacked sole leather handles and crown stag pommels has an overall length knife 14-1/2" with blade length of 9". Fork overall 11" with Kriss marking on front. CONDITION: Near pristine with very slight evidence of handling. Handles are near pristine, and set shows no actual use. This set was purchased directly from William "Bill" Scagel and was consigned to us by the original purchasers family and has never been offered for sale prior. TDW
