Clayton Knife

[smiling-knife]

I recently acquired this knife made by Graham Clayton. Clayton worked for Ibberson up until the mid 70s and then made knives under the trade name Digbys. This one was made in the early 1990s when Clayton displayed his talent at the Kellam Island Museum in Sheffield. Visitors could watch him make knives in his shop right there in the museum. This knife is 5 inches long closed and the blade is about 4 inches long. The action is silky smooth.

Classic Sheffield beauty. I know not everyone here likes filework, but I do, and I like this. I also like its slimness.

Another nice one, S-K!

Thanks for the responses.

Kerry, no I don't know the type of stainless steel. The stag does seem polished.
