I already posted this W. Morton & Sons in the "Made in Sheffield" thread, but I think it's interesting enough to show off here, too.

Neat old knife. Too bad about the broken main blade.What is the tool/blade (one with hole in end) on the far left for?

Rachel, that is a pretty cool old knife, love the unusual shape of it.

It's a file/screwdriver, but I don't know what the hole is for.

Thanks!

I really liked viewing this in the Sheffield thread, it's an interesting Old Knife that's for sure, I couldn't imagine the Horror of Breaking a Blade on a Knife like that - one of life's regrettable moments.
Usually when there is a Hole- it's for Threading, but as R8shell said- on one side it's a File- nail file? so it doesn't really makes sense it be a thread hole- Real interesting that's for sure.

Here are a couple of Schrade CC autos I have recently acquired. The top one is a No. 1613 3/4 and is 4 & 7/8 inches. It has a divot type jigged bone pre peach seed. The bottom one is a No. 1553 3/4 and is 4 & 1/4 inches. It has a sort of a pre peach seed what I think Charlie would call confused basketweave jigging pattern. What do you say Charlie? Thanks for looking!

A couple of voluptuous beauties, Lloyd!!
The "basketweave" must have preceded "peachseed", and must have followed that "divot" type. It's a bit murky, but maybe the basketweave was an experiment that ended in peachseed, because, while different, it required two passes, so took longer!
Will we ever know for sure??
It's fairly rare, so it's nice to come across it!!
