Metal knife with crude wooden handle, blade appears to have been cut down from a larger size and handle is likely a replacement. The blade appears to be made of steel and has "GR Rodgers" along with an image of a crown stamped into one side, this stamp gives insight into the origin of the blade with the crown and GR standing for King George IV and Rodgers denoting the specific manufacturer, this dates the blade to 1820-1830 England. Since its manufacture the blade has been inexpertly cut down, creating a slightly wavy, tapered shape in the edge of the blade and an inconsistent sharpness; there is also a slight bend at the tip. The replacement handle is crafted out of dark wood and held together with three small rivets that are just slightly too long for the thickness of the handle, leading to them sticking out. A gap was carved out of the center of the wood for the tang so there are gaps wide enough between the metal and wood that light can be clearly seen on the other side. The blade is very tarnished and the wood handle is worn.
