All About Pocket Knives

J. Norwill & Sons marked knife. The bluing has been polished off blade as well as having what appears to be file scratches on blade. A heavy kahki paint on the grip?? Any ideas about this knife, is it the real deal??

Jerryd, I assume that this knife is not particularly collectable. Is that true, particularly because of the finish removal on the blade and the non original paint job on the grip?

I'm sorry. I can't speak to the collectability of the knife. Those issues you listed would in my mind, along with it being a post WWII knife, severely limit it's collector value. I think this is a question better answered by Iron Hoarder since he is more familiar with British knives. Or maybe not.
