Description
Welcome to The Sheffield Cutlery Shop’s latest collection of Antique Pen/Pocket Knives!
This Richard Martin & Ebenezer Hall penknife features immaculate luminous Mother of Pearl scales and a beautifully polished Silver blade, hallmarked with the Crown, Lion Passant and date letter Z for 1867. The age of this knife is shown in the presence of a Shield Inlay – created by a difficult manufacturing process using a tool called a parser. This is a skill that unfortunately has not stood the test of time.
The springs are in fantastic condition.
The backwork, pearl handle carvings, and blade engraving are absolutely exceptional and create a true piece of beauty. Please take a good look at the images.
When fully open, the knife measures 15.5 cm. When closed, the knife measures 8.5 cm. The Pocket Knife weighs 26 grammes.
This timeless penknife would surely grace anyone’s collection. Please see our ‘Pen Knives’ categories for more.
