Got some spoons at a tag sale - they're marked Kneubuhler Swiss Made.  Anybody know anything about these??

I have a hanful that I found in one of my grandad's tackeboxes after he passed away.  I do know that they're Swiss made and I believe that they were originally produced by a jeweler or watch maker.  Definitely something that would be interesting to look into.  They're definitely very neat lures, which reminds me I should really try and find where it is I put mine so I can put them in the frame with other antique lures I've found.

The American made Doctor Spoon is fashioned similar to these. I've come across these a few times over the years while tackle grubbing and used one in Lake Superior one summer until something popped it off the line.

Thanks - I'll keep looking to see if I can find anything else.  Sometimes looking for the info is fun too.

This spoon is no more produced, the form are
broken.
