    Description

    Up for sale is unique set of 10 Victorian knives, all in good condition. The steel shines up well with minimal stains or discolored areas. A few scuffs and scratches commensurate with age. Some rusted areas, but generally in exceptionally good condition for their age and pre-stainless steel blades.
    The handles have been formed from cow bone and feature a lovely natural color which contrasts with the steel beautifully. Each handle has been pinned, one pin on each side. The handles are all in good condition with no chips, cracks, or breaks.
    Each blade is marked "Henry Wigfull, Silversmith & Cutler, Sheffield," the famous English silversmith of the late 19th century.
