Thanks Dimitri, Lyle, and doglegg.
That's a good looking Conventry pruner with attractive wood handles.
Here is a flat cap Butler pruner with their "Key" trademark logo stamped on the blade.

Nice examples Chickenman.
Two fine pruners Ridgegrass, and I am a big fan of triple fluted bolsters as seen on your Rowbotham.

Here is a checkered wood handled sportsman's model with an unusual stamp.
It's marked "Dobie Glasgow" (Scotland) but was certainly made in Sheffield.

A quill knife/page separator by Critchfield, Sheffield, possibly c.1750 as per Levine. Amazing that thin piece of pearl hasn't cracked in all that time.

Re: Antique Knives Made In England
Thanks Lyle. I bought that in Delaware a year or two ago. I think it was lying loose on a shelf, not locked up, should have been broken, but, there it is. It's one of those you wish could talk.
