Can’t help with knife info, but will offer a welcome to AAPK! Tons of info here.
Given the stamp on the “spey like” blade, I am not getting close to that sucker! ::woot::

Perhaps a Taylor Eye Witness knife from Sheffield?

Nice old knife, JamesStraker.
Apparently that knife is of no use in the East, where I will remain. :mrgreen:

Are there any accessories in the handle on the back side?

Welcome here. ::nod::

Welcome James,

If you go to the Search function (upper left under "Quick links") and search on "western castrator" you will find a number of posts showing that blade stamp, all Sheffield except one German (Solingen).
