Antique English Bread Knife — Carved Bone Handle, Threaded Ferrule
An antique English bread/cake knife with a hand-carved bone handle in a wheat/leaf motif, joined to the blade with a threaded metal ferrule collar — a construction style seen on documented English examples from the Edwardian era (a comparable hallmarked 1901 Sheffield example with the same carved bone handle style and collar construction is a useful reference point). The maker's mark on this blade is not legible.
The blade shows an honest patina consistent with genuine age and use. The carved bone handle is solid and secure, with crisp detail to the carving.
