Literature

See A. Lepper-Binnewerg, Carl Pott, Das Nützliche vollkommen gestalten, Hamburg 1993, p. 89, with illustration. "The most striking element is the extraordinarily elegant silhouette of the knife, which extends in a single bold line from the narrow end of the handle to the tip of the blade."
