Unusual Rahr Brewery letter opener with knife in the body of handle. The beautiful handle looks old...feels old..and it on both sides and measures 3" ... Letter opener blade is 6" and the short knife in the handle is 2 1/4" ... marked Voss Cut.Co. Germany. Started in 1847 by the Rahr family which had immigrated from Germany to Manitowac, Wisc. The handle says 1847 Malt of Reputation, with a large R ... smaller 'ahr' and beautifully done shaft of barley entwined in the large R. Possibly a giveaway or company gift. There is some kind of glue on the knife, but I haven't tackled that yet...It will come clean...a beautiful desk ornament. Happens that my grandfather immigrated from Germany in about the 1870's and was a brewer at a Tacoma brewery. Life is interesting.
