That's a beautiful knife, Tom, but, I must admit, every horsemans/farrier style knife looks Sheffield made to me ::shrug::

Do I get partial credit for identifying the best dog you ever had? :)

That is an incredibly attractive piece of vintage cutlery, Tom; I needed some time to drool over it before I could move on and post the next mystery knife ::drool:: ::drool:: ::drool:: ::tu:: And while I'm certain someone would eventually have guessed Meriden by process of elimination, I must confess that AI was the only reason I got to it first; I'm really not that knowledgeable about vintage knives :oops: ::facepalm::

For the next mystery knife, let's try something a little different:
Instead of the maker, can anyone guess the COUNTRY OF ORIGIN? (it's NOT USA) ::sneaky::
Double bonus points for also identifying the manufacturer ::nod::
