I have a carpenters/riggers hatchet that has Worth stamped on it and can't seem to find any info about Worth. Does anyone know of this company?

Here's what I know. They put their name on this knife:

WORTH / B. WORTH AND SONS / CUTLERS,SHEFFIELD / SHEAR STEEL
That mark likely predates 1891 (it doesn't say "England"), and the blade tang tapers within the handle.
20230615_003841.jpgGoins dates it c. 1873-1953. That places it between 1893 and 1891. I'd like to see photos of your hatchet. T-A
