I do too.
William Rodgers 1817-1863
Apparently his wife and sons carried on until 1871.
That knife has some age to it.
Very nice knife.

Very cool knife which was called the "Bushman's Friend". It was also offered with stag handles.

Thanks, Miller Bros., BWT, and Cudgee.
Miller Bros., that's a fantastic Bushman's example in stag.

Nice metal handled example Miller Bros.
Here are a couple more English-made Spratt models. The one on the right is a bit more fancy than most.

Thanks DM11 and Miller Bros.
It's interesting how many different variations of the same model are often found.
