I recently purchased on eBay a knife that has a pocketeze shield on the handle It was cheap with vey little info but I assumed it was a Robeson When I opened the package today I was surprised to read a tang stamp that read “J.Milner and co. Sheffield. The reverse I can only make out Utica NY. Help !!!

Could be a Franken knife?

I had the same thought but I’m not very knowledgeable on Robeson knives. There are some here who are so waiting on them to impart their wisdom. Maybe they’ll help enlighten us.

Yeah I thought of that as a possibility but it really looks quality like maybe it was a knife robeson made for Milner on contract. Hope more knowledgeable folks will chime in the shield was definitely not just glued on and the bone design sure looks right

I would say the blades have been replaced.
