About

Combining traditional craftsmanship with sporting elegance, this handsome four-piece carving set features richly detailed antler handles and hunting-inspired ornamentation. Crafted in Germany circa 1950, the stainless steel cutlery set includes a carving knife, meat fork, honing steel, and poultry shears, all presented in their fitted original box.

The carving knife is decorated along the blade with engraved motifs of a tree, hunting gun, and gold-tone powder horn, while its antler handle is carved with a stag. The honing steel features a sculptural hunter accompanied by his faithful hunting dog. The two-pronged meat fork is fitted with a convenient folding stand that keeps the utensil elevated above the table; its antler handle displays a carved doe, complemented by a gold-tone powder horn and green foliage on the metalwork.

Completing the set, the poultry shears feature serrated blades, spring tension, and a locking mechanism. Their handles are embellished with finely carved bird motifs. Both decorative and functional, this distinctive antique carving set would make an impressive addition to a dining room, hunting lodge, or gentleman’s collection. The set and original fitted box are in good condition commensurate with age and use.
