Manufactured c. mid to late 19th century. This knife pistol is fitted with a Damascus steel barrel that has no sights and is devoid of markings with a percussion nipple at the rear. The hammer and grip scales are engraved with relief scenes of a dog chasing a fox on the left and a hunter looking for his dog who's bringing him back a game bird on the right. A pick folds down from the left hand side to act as a grip and the trigger folds down from the right. A 3 1/2 inch blade folds down from between the trigger and pick.

Good with an overall grey and brown patina overall with distinct patterns on the barrel, scattered pitting, and crisp engraving on the scales. The blade shows some reshaping from sharpening with a small chip near the bottom. The trigger does not stay firmly against the body when not engaged, otherwise mechanically fine.
