marked blade by George Wostenholm.
it is not dated but has the C /l\ Canadian
acceptance stamp.

I was addicted to the "Hokey-Pokey" but I've turned
myself around.
I was issued with a war-time dated all Stainless Steel example when I joined the TA in 1980. I was told that I was one of the last to be issued and they were using up remaining stocks.
Cheers brother, a steal at that price it was rude not to take it, amazing how many of these show up.
You don't often see them for less than £15 these days in my part of the world.

Whatever its just an opinion.
I suppose thats the beauty of boot sales you never know what is on the next table.
Just found this thread whilst searching for information on Jack Knives. Thought I would share my small collection of these. I have three British ones, a Belgian post war variation and a post war civilian pen knife in the same style. The guy who sold me the smaller one was desperately keen on selling it as a prototype military knife, it's Sheffield made but not arrow marked and the workmanship is not the best so I haggled and got it for a more reasonable price. I was born in Sheffield so am interested in these knives, my first penknife was the military knife in the picture with no shackle. I buy them when I see them but never pay more than £10 for them, although they are not all in good nick they are very tactile items and feel nice in the hand.
super group that, well done.
