Description:

Manufactured in the last half of the 19th century, the Delhaxhe Revolver has many features in common with the Dolne "Apache", particularly the set of brass knuckles integrated into the grip and the 2 1/4 inch long hinged dagger blade. Unlike the Dolne's hinged knuckle grip, which allows you to have a revolver or a trench knife but never both at the same time, the Delhaxhe has it's knuckles in a fixed position giving a greater degree of stability and allowing all three offensive elements of the arm to be brought into play near simultaneously; if attacked one could fire a full string of six rounds and go straight to punching or stabbing their assailants without even having to adjust their grip. The cylinder is stamped with the "E/LG/(star)" Liege proof on the rear, with "AD" and "crown/JD" on the left side of the frame, "1096" on the right side of the engraved mainspring housing, and "635" on the left side near the ejector pin. The dagger blade sticks out from the butt of the revolver when deployed, and swings up to rest against the mainspring housing when closed and a small swiveling safety is installed behind the trigger.

Rating Definition:

Fine. The steel components show a mixed brown patina with 30% of the original blue and some light pitting on the hammer and trigger and the brass shows a fine attractively aged mustard yellow patina. Both show mild handling marks and the trigger pin appears to be a replacement. A slight bend is visible in the blade which is marked with four notches on the ricasso. Mechanically fine.
