Sheffield Table Knife, C & Co. Cutlery, Rosewood Handle

$40.00

A single table knife from Sheffield, England, stamped Sheffield / C & Co. / Cutlery. As with many Sheffield trade names of the period, the specific manufacturing firm behind the mark isn't clearly documented.

The knife features a wide, flat-spined blade with a characteristic rounded tip, typical of Victorian table knives intended for the dinner table rather than the kitchen. The rosewood handle is solid and secure. See Condition Notes below for detail.
