Nice old knife...origins? Use?
A nice old knife, horn (green) slabs, held on with 6 steel/iron pins. The blade is hollow ground 5" long. OAL 8.5". The decorative 'semi circular petrusion' either side of the blade next to the handle (not sure what to call it ) is lead alloy/pewter? Has anyone able to identify its origins? name and/or use? Thank you
