The Joseph Rodgers has more of a bat wing than monkey tail. It provides a place for two fingers on the tail and two on the tang. A really neat design.

Lots of patina. No rust to speak of. 5/8 hollow ground with little hone wear. Unfortunately, I don't care too much for hollow ground, so I'll probably be letting this one go.

If I had to guess age? Well into the 20th century. Seems to be plastic scales with a 77 embossed on the inside. Probably a part number. England export stamp as well as Ground in Sheffield.
