Hi folks!
I was given this knife by a family friend around the age of 7. I put it away for safe keeping, and never learned much about it. What I do know from the markings on the back is that is was sold by W.M Anderson & Sons LTD., "military outfitters" Edinburgh & Glasgow. Apparently, it was common for blade manufacturers to sell their knives/swords to military outfitters, who would in turn mark them & sell directly to the officers. W.M Anderson & Sons was operated under that name between 1910-1956, so I'm guessing that's the period for this piece.
If you have any idea of its worth or who actually manufactured this piece, I'd great appreciate the information!
Cheers!,
