Thinking about purchasing above knife on internet. Says INOX Stainless and
Sheffield England on 2 separate tangs. I cannot find very much information
on the knife company. Does anyone have a Wilkinson pocket knife or know
about their quality?
Possible Christmas gift..........
Thanks,
Bob

Re: Wilkinson Sword Canoe Pattern
I remember from European history class that the Wilkinson Sword brothers made the guillotine for the French Terror. So, they've been cutting men's necks for ages. 

Pocket, fixed, machete, axe, it's all good!

Re: Wilkinson Sword Canoe Pattern
I remember an IXL WOSTENHOLM - Schrade numbered set of something like five different knife patterns from the early 80โs that had a stag canoe. I canโt say I remember a Wilkinson Sword canoe though. The WOSTENHOLM sets were usually broken up and sold. Nice knives, but not really sought after. I really liked the stockman.

That must have been an interesting teacher to mention that. Plus it is interesting that
you remember that mentioned.

Re: Wilkinson Sword Canoe Pattern
It was a college professor, and I have always been interested in history. Something like the guillotine was memorable.rea1eye wrote: โSat Dec 06, 2025 7:43 am1967redrider wrote: โFri Dec 05, 2025 9:11 pm I remember from European history class that the Wilkinson Sword brothers made the guillotine for the French Terror.
