Nurnberger Trichter Silver Pocket Knife

[skiplee2013]

I have a small silver pocketknife with a man with a funnel above a boy and it looks like he’s pouring knowledge into his head, and on the other side is a town/village with the word Nurnberger under it. There are 2 blades one on each end that fold, one of the blades has the word LUNA and at the bottom of the blade it looks like a plus sign on it. Could someone help me figure out if this is just a really old pocketknife or if it’s worth possibly selling. Thank You

That’s a old pocket knife! Here’s a similar one that the owner claims to be from the early 1900s:

I really don’t know how old your pocket knife, but early 1900s seems reasonable. Here’s the exact same pocket knife that sold for $225 in the past:

Based on the above information, I would estimate your Nurmberger Trichter figural pocket knife to be worth between $100-250 dollars. Great pocket knife, thanks for sharing!!
