“William Rodgers Sheffield England”, 1830-1855 according to Levine’s guide #4. The egde is thin but strong, I am really impressed with the grind on that knife.

It won't be as old as that, the tang-stamp type and the spacers on the guard are from c20th in my opinion. A grand item mind.

jnevill. I agree with Will Power, Rodgers was making knives well into the 20th Century, but it is still great looking knife. Thanks. John

Yep, you guys are absolutely correct, a closer look @ Levine’s shows the trademark was sold in 1885 and again in the mid 80’s.

As much as I think I know about the history of knives, on this forum I am a rookie!

Thank you guys!

As a free gift for teaching me something new, here is an “Axel Nilsson Sterling Service” made/contracted by J.M. Thompson Hardware Co., 1900-1922.
