Swedish knife info pls
 
5 Attachment(s)
Found this Swedish Mora knife. Clearly stamped Erik Frust. Quite interesting as google AI insists that Frust must be a miss spelling of Frost. Indeed the very same model of red painted birch handle knife is available from Frost in Mora called Frost No2. That model blade is 7mm shorter than my Frust knife, so what is going on. Sadly the belt loop has worn away. Nice painted "boiled ?" hard leather scabbard. As you can see boldy spamped Frust and no misstake. Any help?

Searching through Frost old cataloges this knife and scabbard, certainly the scabbard seems to have been in production from 1911 to 1940. Still the problem of Frust stamping?

Hello Tim,

I am nearly sure that the "u" is a poorly stamped "o". The stamp completely is clearly the stamp from the Frost company.

Regards,
Detlef
