    SS President Harding Knife Gusstahl Soligen Blade
    I am pleased to present for your viewing and potential bid a vintage SS Lines President Harding Knife with a blade marked Gusstahl Soligen.
    There are two blades on the knife; one is marked.  Measurements are 2-1/2" long for 1 blade and 1-1/2" long for the other blade.
    Knife measures about 3-1/4" long and appears to be bakelite with a pearlized design.  Graphic of the S. S. President Harding on it.

    This is a site on the SS President Harding which states that it operated from 1920 to 1952:
