| I know it is a knife, but can anyone tell me anything about it? |
 |
| I purchased it today at an antiques fair in Abingdon, Virginia. |
 |
| I love how ornate it is, and it was in my price range ($2.50) - I love it even more that it is cracked...kind of like me! |
I'm linking this up to several blog parties: You can read about Southern Hospitality's blog here.

Hit Betsy,
ReplyDeletethis is a breakfast knife with ivory or ivory imitation handle. They have been very common in Great Britain and very similar, just with a pointed blade they have fish knifes. The sets includes usually forks with the same handles. For exemple you can see a set here:
