My Dad's old 'Victoria'

Guess he must have bought this back in around 1965. He was a very keen gardener, hence the pruning and budding blade - strangely enough, the latter is stainless, whereas both others are ferrous steel of some kind.Liners are brass and the scales look some kind of horn.

Not only a treasured heirloom but an outstanding piece of cutlery.
 
Thank you very much, gentlemen..........good feeling to have his old penknife acknowledged in this way :) :)

Nice to see another Victoria, they are pretty rare in this forum...
Here's another one with horn handles, this was my great-grandfather's knife.
