    Description

    This amazingly detailed folding fruit knife has deeply crosshatched, fiery Mother Of Pearl handles which results in a unique raised diamond pattern. And, at the peak of each diamond is a silver pin. The handle appears to be made of two layers which is hard to see in the pics. Some of the pins are slightly larger and probably help hold the layers together. The bolsters are scrolled and the back spring
    is intricately chased. A tour-de-force created by JN in Sheffield, England in 1898-99. No doubt to show off his mastery of the craft.
    A one-of-a-kind amazing piece!
