It's Thirsty Thursday! (Or 5 O'Clock somewhere...)

Recently made French knives.

My Vic Minichamp is a little knife, but it can handle important jobs…

Very nice fish-like opener you show there s-k. Looks like it's opened a tidy few bottles in its time:D Do you think it's pre WW2? Practical and amusing item, didn't realize Schweppes made ciders though:confused: Artistic licence perhaps...:D

Thanks, Will
 
Thanks for your comments Will. I think these knives date from the 1920s. Schweppes made cider at this time.

I have one more of this pattern.

It's hard for me to believe, but I think this is the only job I've ever given my Rough Rider scout knife so far; that doesn't seem fair especially since the knife handled the job so expertly! :p:p
