Lots of wonderful pho, but I'm really partial to sutton's old Buck. My offering for this week is a horn-handled pick-lock vineyard knife, I think, probably European.

That's impressive :cool: There are some online resources for French cutler's marks. Why don't you post pics in Charlie's Prune Big... thread, it gets more traffic than this one? :thumbsup:

Does not look like French marks. Like Sheffield cutlers the trademark was often a symbol, not letters.

Apologies, I think I was making an assumption there. We don't have many vineyards here, but we do have onions, hops, etc. It really doesn't look like a Sheffield-made knife though :thumbsup:

Yes you do John JohnDF JohnDF and something of note about your's is that the covers on your's are different colors - brown on the mark side and black on the pile side. Further, there's a notch in the pile side cover to give better access to the pen blade nail notch.

I don't mind at all, however it won't be the first time it's been posted at that site.

I would like help determining the maker, the country of origin, and the vintage of this old pruner.
