Thank you, Sir. Steve gets most of the credit for finding these, I had the Blue Scroll and 6244 boxes previously.

I don't have very many old knives with boxes but I did pick up this IXL from the recent Bruce Voyles auction. It's in the "Sheffield Knives Exhibition" book. Lots of great knives in the auction. This one is 2 inches closed.

Thanks Lee and Mike. There are some teeny swedges on the blades. Someone had good eyesight and steady hands back in the day.

That's very cool Barry. That paper looks crisp and a nice knife to boot.

Beautiful knife, Mike!

I think it is special to have one that is pictured in the Sheffield Exhibition book.
Barry, what Mike said!

Thanks Lee, now I need to get the book. I think the whittler was the proverbial low hanging fruit in that auction, but I'm happy to have it.

Cool to have a beautiful knife from the Sheffield book, Mike!

I just got a copy of the book in the mail today. Opened it up straight away and went looking for your knife. Knife World has them on sale for a really good price right now.
Neat NYK lobster and paper sleeve, Barry!

Beautiful Ulster. DO you have any history on the box? Was this an individual shipping direct to a scout customer box?
