Knife wall of shame

That J W & S looks like it still has some decent life left in it to me Jack. Just maybe a little kinder life. :D
 
Sweet collection Jack.

The first one looks like someone wanted a tanto.

Do you know what the blades on the Wade & Butcher were suppose to be?

Thanks Tim, yes indeed! :D Here's what it looks like now, ADEE did some work on the blade for me, it's never going to be a looker, but at least it cuts now! ;)





The Wade & Butcher is a WW2 British Army Clasp Knife, with a Sheepsfoot blade and a can-opener. How on earth anyone managed to break the can-opener like that, I have no idea, they're built for opening Panzers! :eek: It still doesn't have any play at the pivot though! :D It wouldn't be hard to find a spare can-opener, indeed I have a couple of dozen similar knives from other manufacturers, but the 'Wade & Butcher' stamp is on the can-opener blade, rather than the Sheepsfoot, which is unstamped (almost all clasp knives of the period are the same).

Thanks :) Yes, it's just a shame someone ran a dremel down both sides of the blade :grumpy: :thumbup:
