Officers Campaign Knife, Fork&Spoon Set

Officers Campaign Knife, Fork&Spoon Set

Code: 11557

SOLD

An Officers private purchase campaign knife, fork and spoon set, of the type popular in the late Victorian period, and still used through WW2 and the partition of India. I would think this example is late Victorian/Edwardian.

The simple yet ingenius design allows the heads of the utensils to be stored inside each others handles for safe carriage. This is the first example I have noted with the addition of a spoon. 

The knife and spoon carry marks for Frederick Asman&Company, of Sheffield.

Measuring eight inches in length when "closed".

Strictly over 18's only. Photo ID will be required before this item can be dispatched.
