Roman multifunctional knife
All-rounder of the ancient world
Amazing! If you think pocket knives are a modern invention. But as the Roman pocket knife proves, gifted craftsmen of antiquity built true multi-functional knives 1800 years ago. Again and again this wealth of ideas of the ancient master craftsmen inspires. The original for this reproduction of the Roman pocket knife was made of silver and an iron (steel) blade. It probably belonged to a Roman officer, as simple legionnaires could rarely afford such marvels of technology.
