1818 British Antique White Pearl Shell Handle Pure Silver Blade Folding Pen Knife
SKU: 172556106
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.
It is a fairly old knife that has been over 200 years since it was made in 1818.
Although there is some pain due to aging, it can still be used sufficiently.
We hope this lovely folding knife will brighten up your day!
