Johnson Western Works Sheffield
Just found this in the wild. It is not a maker with which I am familiar.
The blade is hollow ground with a thick spine. It’s quite a heavy blade.
Scales are horn and seem to be of different thicknesses and have some delamination that will have to be fixed. The wedge is lead and appears to be in really good shape
Some surface rust and discolouration that I will be working on and chips at the toe that will have to be ground out. The chips don’t worry me much as taking them out will help put a smile on the blade.
