A group of vintage folding pocket knives accompanied by a brown embossed leather sheath. The collection features a variety of utility and military-style designs.

A small white adhesive sticker is affixed to the wooden handle bearing the handwritten numerals 12870. The group also contains two British military-pattern folding clasp knives, each featuring black chequered synthetic scales and metal lanyard loops; one of these examples is equipped with a folding marlin spike. Also present is a utility folding knife with dark scales and two blades, and a smaller single-blade folding knife with a metal handle. The leather sheath features an embossed design and a metal press-stud closure. A white adhesive label is attached to the sheath and is printed with the text SHELBYS AUCTIONEERS LOT 253 01132502626. No other maker’s marks, dates, or signatures are legible on the blades or handles of the items.
