This is a really nice rare item. William Nicholson was a general dealer in all sorts of cutlery. He may not have made it but had it made for him. You would be most unlikely to find anything like this at antique fairs in the UK. From about 1860 he is listed as a fine cutlery manufacturer at a different address. Knives of this type are still made in Sheffield but without the embellishments. http://www.sheffield-gb.com
