    Description

    Russian Soyuz TM-16 / Mir EO-13 Flown Utility Knife Signed by and Originally from the Collection of Cosmonaut Alexander Poleshchuk. This 11.75" long serrated-edge heavy-duty knife spent 179 days in space aboard the Russian Space Station Mir, launching January 24 and returning July 22, 1993. The handle bears the number: "17KC.30010 9213-30" and the cloth sheath is signed by Poleshchuk. The knife is connected by cords to the sheath and also a massive snaphook. This was Poleshchuk's only space flight. He was later awarded the title of Hero of the Russian Federation. Very fine.

    This was my first time dealing with an auction house, and I am 100% completely impressed with Heritage. There is not an aspect of this process that I have a critique for.
