Introducing the British antique folding penknife.

A penknife is a small knife used to sharpen the tip of a quill pen.
It seems that you can also sharpen pencils and use it like a letter opener.

This is a folding type with a pure silver blade attached to a mother-of-pearl handle.
The blade and steel fittings are all gold-plated, giving it a luxurious feel.
The sterling silver blade has intricate botanical engravings and the handle cartouche
A monogram that seems to be the initials of the first owner is engraved.
Comes in original leather case.


We hope this lovely folding knife will brighten up your day!
