    Very nice! I actually use a pipe tool/knife made by Rodgers of Sheffield, they are quite common and still sold all over:



    I also have a Chinese Chef's knife that is a blatant knock off of their style, it says "Masterfield" in a traditional looking Sheffield typeface.

    I have knifes like that.
    Used to be pretty common in Norway.
    Usually used as dinner knifes.
    I bought a dozen of them some 10 years back, and they are still functioning perfectly.
    All it takes is a sharpening about every 6 monthe, and they just keep on going.
    I love mine!

    I have six Wostenholm dinner knives with bone handles in unused condition.

    Hey Grant, We have heaps of those knives. They've been distributed amongst the family now. We had piles of them out on the Station. All in various states of use. Some have been used and abused for station tasks and others were kept in good codition and used only at the table. I've never stopped to look at the manufacturers stamps...Now I want to go visit all the family scattered across this bloody great big state and sort them into manufacturer sets...
