These are likely part of a 'Travellers Set. Go back over 100 years and people travelled on ships and trains the journey sometimes taking weeks. People carried these Traveller Sets so they could use their own utensils while eating.
There is another term for these but i can't think of it right now. Maybe "Campaign Set" ?

They are part of a set of a knife,fork,& spoon sometimes housed in a water glass I usually call,"picnic sets". I did a thread awhile back on them.I'll see if I can locate it. They were popular in the 1920's and 30's.

Ray i have read that these sets go back to 1890's. Many were made in Britain as well as Germany and travel by ship to India, South Africa, Australia, etc. was booming by 1890's. They were also good for long train trips that could take 4-5 days.

Roland:I think the term you might be thinking of is,"trousse" which I believe stands for "three";a knife a fork and a spoon.
Here is a set I picked up many years ago that must have been displayed in a window;possibly on the ship that is advertised on the case.The "M.V.(Motor Vessel)Bluenose".The handles are considerably lighter on one side than the other and there is a dividing line across two of the handles.

K.K.: Have this and one more. Nickel plated brass. No marks on either !? European ? Corkscrew is grooved like the European ones. No nail nick? p.i.t.a. to open !?
Cap lifter not fully visible in pic.
Anyway, good luck. J.O.

Comin' at ya!These are mostly older but with a few new ones thrown in for good measure.
#1is a modern set by Hubertus.
#2 is marked simply "D.R.G.M." a German patent designation.
#3 is a knife and fork set stored inside a drinking glass within a leather case.Marked Germany.
#4 is a knife/fork/spoon set;a souvenir of the M.V.Bluenose a Canadian ship.
#5 i another set with what looks like horn handles but I believe are some type of synthetic.
#6 & #7 are Schrade sets made for the Girl & Boy Scouts.The difference in the sets is the Girl Scouts had a green sleeve inside the knife handle whereas the Boy Scouts were red.
#8 A nice set in a chamois purse by Edward Wusthof.
#9A nice little set made in Spain.
#10 A modern take apart knife by Richartz Germany

Yesterday morning, this "Fork Knife With A Corkscrew" arrived in a lot or group of pocket knives that I bought. I did NOT buy the lot or group of pocket knives to obtain this particular item. But, I'll hang on to it for awhile. I believe that it is one third of a "Picnic Set." Missing of course is the knife, and the spoon. It is an UNBRANDED, 3 1/2" closed, 6 1/2" open, "Fork Knife With A Corkscrew." There are NO remains of any stamp, mark, or etch, anywhere on this "Fork Knife With A Corkscrew" to be found. The fork opens and closes with no problems. The corkscrew opens and closes with no problems. This "Fork Knife With A Corkscrew" is in GOOD condition. This "Fork Knife With A Corkscrew" did NOT need cleaning at all.
I just wiped it off. I took some pictures and here it is.
Caption(s), if any, are on the BOTTOM of the corresponding picture(s).
