Help with a knife Eagle Cutlery Co Sheffield
I had great success with this forum identifying my L. Bradley Naugatuck pocket knife, figured I’ll try again with another old one. This two blade pocket knife is in rough shape, one blade says Eagle Cutlery Co Sheffield, the other blade I can partially read says South——, something I thought maybe Southwich Cutlery Co, only a guess. Neither markers have given me any information. The pocket knife seems very old, no England so must be prior to 1890s. Any help would be great, two different marks seems change. Thanks for looking.

Definitely a blade and handle change with the knife.
The pen blade is marked Southington Cutlery Co.

That you Miller Bros, Southington Cutlery Co. looks right. I agree this pocket like is a Frankenstein with mixed parts. I believe Southington Cutlery Co. went out of business in 1902. The Eagle Cutlery Co. Sheffield, can’t find anything on their existence. Still curious about that, thanks again.

The Southington blade may be original to the knife, but the Eagle sure isn't. Nail Nick is covered by main when closed.
