You can always get more money, good old knives are hard to find.

Re: Antique Knives Made In England
I think this guy came to Montana from England, where do you think it was made?
Re: Antique Knives Made In England
As per Goin's, there was a "Babcock & Stowell, Binghamton, N.Y." 1900 - 1930
With the remark; "This hardware was the Babcock Hardware in 1898".
This might be a connection.

Found this yesterday in Millsboro, DE. Couple bucks. I like Wostenholm knives. Probably not an "antique" .Looks like maybe the 50's ? Like the "Oil The Joints" on the secondary. J.O'.

Re: Antique Knives Made In England
Nice knives Iman and Mike.
You don't see a lot of celluloid Sheffield knives.
Large (at 4 1/4") French ivory Humphreys Radiant farmers jack. A heavy knife considering how thin it is and the celluloid handles.

Re: Antique Knives Made In England
A nice group, Dimitri.
Is the bottom one 6-inch? It looks like what the late British emigre knife dealer Jim Taylor called a (Sheffield) "town pattern".

Re: Antique Knives Made In England
GREAT Stag on all of them! I am curious about the little guy at the top with a spatula and a poker; I can think of a number of ways I would use those tools, but I wonder what the original intended use was for it? A pipe smoking doctor, perhaps?

Re: Antique Knives Made In England
Q Thanks!
Yes exactly right, a pipe smokers knife, the wide blade is for scraping the bowl and the long thin rod is for clearing the stem

Not as pristine as yours, but you inspired me to dig out my top 5 Sheffield stag.
