Grymm Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 Like it says on the tin, a trick knife, bit like the comedy arrow through the head, from the 1700's http://www.museums-sheffield.org.uk/collections/objects-in-3d/blades/trick-knife Lambourne! Lambourne! Stop that man pissin' on the hedge, it's imported. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cascabel Posted May 27, 2012 Share Posted May 27, 2012 Interesting....... The handle looks like the handle on a plug bayonet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PoD Posted June 24, 2012 Share Posted June 24, 2012 I have a couple of spare plug bayonet handles. I might try making a normal clasp knife based on that design. ...and then I discovered the wine... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peglegstrick Posted June 24, 2012 Share Posted June 24, 2012 Looks like a Brown bess plug bayonet to me...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grymm Posted June 24, 2012 Author Share Posted June 24, 2012 (edited) It's a simple turned folding 'penny knife' handle, just looks a bit like a plug bayonet. You can still get similar designs of handle today. €6(Euros)'ll get you one of these from this site http://www.mehr-als-...r-2526_3529.htm The thing that I only just noticed is what looks like an Opinel style locking ring or at least the patina/wear of where one was!?
