    This was given to a friend of a friend who's husband worked in the East London Dockyards, as a boiler fitter, over 60 years ago.
    Both blades are marked at their base, with the makers name, Harrison brothers and Howson, Cutlers to His Majesty, so it was before the ascension of the Present Queen, it is also marked made in Sheffield England. Both sides are marked with the companies name and business details. It is very slim and measures 8.5cm long 1.5 cm wide 4mm thick. It is probably made of nickel plated steel. A very easy piece to carry, not that I would, lol.
    Many thanks for looking
