GEORGE WOSTENHOLM Two Bladed Pen Knife circa 1900 - The knife has two blades that both hinge at one end, one with a spear shaped blade and the other a pen knife. Both retain a sharp cutting edge and there is some aged “greying” to the finish, but I think this would clean up to a brighter finish, if that was preferred? The larger spear blade is stamped on one side of the ricasso: I*XL GEORGE WOSTENHOLM On the other side are stamped the words: OIL THE JOINTS 3.6” (9.2cm) long, when closed. It weighs 57g.
