Welcome Home...THANK YOU FOR BEING A PART OF OUR COMMUNITY

I acquired these four on the weekend from an antique fair.

A circa 1950s Wostenholm sleeveboard penknife with faux ivory. The good carbon steel sharpens very nicely. Will edc this one for awhile.

Next is a nice Taylors Eyewitness bone handled serpentine jack knfe.

This is 1941 GI British army knife. The recessed dimpled pattern on the scales is somewhat unusual for this type of knife. I was quited pleased to add this to my collection of military folders.

Finally, an aluminum-handled knife advertising Sissons Bros. The company made paints, varnishes etc. Fantastic condition for a 100+ year old knife.

Thanks Stephen.  If anyone is interested, here's a link to the history of the company. I like learning from my knives.
