I believe this is my only Morley.

I posted this one that I found on ebay in General discussion.....I'll post her here also.
I have never seen a congress pattern with this particular blade configuration........thought it was pretty cool.

Re: W.H. Morley & Sons pocket knife
Its on ebay as we speak...I am going to try and win it..but I'm afraid it will go a bit out of my range because of its rarity.
I have never seen a congress pattern with these type blades before either.....very unusual.

Re: W.H. Morley & Sons pocket knife
I just found this W H Morley so I thought I would just add it to this thread.
Nice looking scales and the blades look pretty good. Just needs a big clean-up.
Looking at the import dates from above, does that mean this knife dates back to that time?
(1913 - 1925)

Thanks Dan!
Sure looks like real mother of pearl on the handles. Looks too good to be mother of toilet seat.
