Hi Everyone

A recent acquisition that I am yet to date...........Can anyone help?

I've seen a couple of sites with the WS logos etc ..........but can't quite get the correct one.

I'm beginning to think 70's.

Nice one John, one less out there to find.

Thanks Kevin

As you have said they are becoming hard to source.

But there are still a few out there.

Hi John,

Nice looking knife,

I think I've found a match for the etching which appears to be an early post war circa 1954 although the condition of the knife looks much more recent unless it's been re-finshed (nickel plating) on the grip.

Although the "Made in England" as oppsed to "London" on the etch does appear in some later models it was apperently used quite early as well. Most of the etchings have Wilkinson London.

have Pm'd you the link, what do you think?

Regards Vic

Thanks Vic I think you have cracked it.

It's a bit rarer than I thought.

I knew someone would help.

Best regards
