All About Pocket Knives

Recently ran across this knife. I thought it was cool. But what is imperial ireland. Same company?

Imperial had a lot of knives made in Ireland. They aren’t worth much but I think they are well made and very usable. I’ve had a few over the years and the Barlows are my favorite. I believe they are shell handled, which is part of the reason they aren’t worth very much. Yes it is the same Imperial company that you see on US made knives.

Thank you
