This antique utility knife features a heavy, single-edged steel blade with a straight back. The hilt is fitted with two-piece horn scales secured by iron pins. The blade displays a dark patina with minor pitting. Manufactured by W. Greaves & Sons in Sheffield, England, this knife was exported to the American market. It represents the type of utility knives used by hunters and frontiersmen during the nineteenth century. The blade is stamped with the W. Greaves & Sons Sheffield maker mark. The knife is offered without a scabbard.
