Thread: Hello, can I ask for some advice?

Monetary valuations are against the forum rules. That said, personally I would keep them as they are family heirlooms and from a well respected maker, certainly not junk. If they were mine I would have them professionally restored and use them, alternately just keep them safe after restoration.

If the blades are just stamped Sheffield and not Sheffield England chances are the pre date 1890/91. I'd be willing to bet the scales are ivory not bone but a better photo would help.

It is anyone's guess what will gain value over time so no bets there. I do not imagine that if sold them now you would get enough to retire on or even make a mortgage payment with so in that respect to that extent not terribly valuable if that is what you are wondering.
