Hi Dudes,
Can anybody tell me anything about this IXL Wostenholm Knife ? I believe it's a budding knife or something of that nature, but if anyone knows more that would be great, dates ? Value ? history etc .
Cheers in advance
JT

Yes, it is a budding knife. Presumably named after botanist Luther Burbank. Steve (knifeaholic) has one on eBay now for $95 / Offer with no takers yet. You can read a little about it here:

I own a mint condition Curtis, named for botanist Charles Curtis, and have been looking for a mint Burbank.

I think you could be right mate, it looks way too dark for Ivory
