Or a tourist paper knife? Curios car boot buy £1.

Bone blade antler handle. Blade set into the handle. I have no idea as to the adhesive material except it looks like a dried animal substance rather like bone marrow. Decorated as can be seen. Has a patina of prolonged use, which my picture only give a hint of. The blade shows signs of heavier use than opening letters. Total length 164mm, blade 96mm. Lots of pics to follow.
