Kidding. What a smoking deal!

I picked up a few more knives in a local antique shop later the same day, including a MOP-handled Vic Classic Cost me less than the Lobster

I needed both hands to pick my jaw up from the floor. What a score!

I hope I won't be drummed out of Yorkshire for not doing so

Very interesting score
The filework and crosses had me thinking Germany at first glance, but no, Sheffield.
Jack and the @Misplaced Hillbilly are the flea market masters

Thanks for the link to this, Jack. I might have missed this thread completely and that would have been a doggone shame! A truly beautiful piece of cutlery history. That knife was meant to be yours!
