http://www.ebay.com/itm/BRITISH-ENGLISH ... 3237wt_806. Here's a link on ebay to one like IH is refering to similar to yours. John Clarke & Son were in buisness in Sheffield from 1848 to 1983 making all sorts of cutlery, pocket knives, razors, bowies etc. They used the mark NEVA, THE RING, EXPRESS(acquired from Henry Hobson), and I CUT MY WAY (acquired from William Rodgers)Slim

I have a question, maybe someone can help. I have acquired a machete with the name Clarke and son on it. It also says air force and 0100 and the year 1945. I've done extensive research and can't find anything about it. Can someone help? Please.
