Can you tell me about this knife set?

[VMiller]

I just came across this set that my mom has had for years (she does not even remember where she got them from or how long she has had them). I tried to do some digging, found a little about the company but not much else. I thought they were neat! The only thing I know is that they are from the Geo. Worthington Co. in Cleveland.

Any idea as to where I can find more info about this? I cannot figure out how to attach a picture of the set? But they are a set of three, with a knife, large fork and it looks like some sort of straight poker. They have handles that look like they are made from either bone or antler of some sort?

thanks!

A carving set the handles seem robe a synthetic of some kind but it's hard to tell with a picture! .... use it! It looks great !

The "thing that looks like a poker" is a sharpening steel, used to touch up the knife edge during use.

Sheffield, England-produced sets such as this were common (often purchased as wedding gifts) in the 1950s-early 60s. Carbon steel versions gave way to chrome-plated and ultimately gravitated to stainless all in the course of about 15 years.

"Vintage" carving set with genuine faux stag handles made of some ultra high-tech 50-60's space age plasticene type material.

Got a roast beast that needs some carving? This will do it.
