Re: 1st silver pocket knife today!!!

Wow, Nice Sterling knife !! I'd take it to a knife shop maybe hunting place or something and have them put a blade in it if you can't do it yourself.... I'd defiantly have it repaired maybe a antique repair place I have no idea....

Awesome finds !!

Keep @ it and HH !!

Re: 1st silver pocket knife today!!!

Rather unusual find man ! Like an earlier respondent posted , I would certainly take the
silver to a knife maker , and have them whip up some new guts for that - You'll have a beautiful
and functional object with special meaning for you . Argentium.

1st pic is a silver Knife metal blades that is very Fa miler to yours, Im thinking after 1900's but b-4 WW2. the other 3 are Real Victorian era, full silver, fruit knives.

I've never seen a silver pocket knife, I would assume that is pretty old. Nice score, that would be a sweet hunt!

 

[Maryland Searcher 2]

That is so sweet! My guess would be Victorian era. Only reason is that I have a sterling silver parasol knob handle that has almost the identical pattern to it.
Very nice find!

 

[djm of PA]

great finds, love that knife!
