Officers Campaign Knife, Fork&Spoon Set

SOLD

Code: 11557

Website: https://www.militariazone.com/crockery-cutlery/officers-campaign-knife-fork/itm38485

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.
