I doubt you'll ever find a bottle like that in Aust, I love history but compared to the UK we have nothing
and what we have is from the UK anyway, sad but true.

[QUOTE=oncedisturbed;613189]I have a few trappers and stockmans which are good knives, I carry an Excalibur 3 blade stockman on me all the time and surprising on how often it gets used and not just by me, even get store staff ask if anyone has a knife because they can't find their box cutters lol

@ OD I did have a Boker knife,
Plus a plumb bob and some early sheetmetal clamps.
Great for knife making, you'll notice the shape of the
clamps is exactly the same as a black smiths leg vice

Not sure if they were bone being from the Art Deco period
Early ones were Ivory, I have a few of those knives, but
only use them at camp for buttering bread.

There should be a small stand inside the box for those little "letter openers". I know there was one in the Final Fantasy series that came out years ago, there not very big and basically a desktop display set.

Shouldn't be too hard to make up a nice wood grain stand and have the blades in a fan shape
