James Rodgers Percussion Knife Pistol

The German silver barrel has two British proofs stamped on the upper left flat. The 3 1/4 inch blade and 2 1/4 inch blade are marked "JAMES/RODGERS/SHEFFIELD" on the left ricasso. The pistol and knives are enclosed in a German silver casing with horn scales secured by rivets. The back strap has a compartment, and there are provisions for tools on the sides near the butt, iron tongs on the right and German silver ball mold on the left.

ConditionGood with an attractive patina on the metal surfaces and some oxidation on the shortened reshaped blades and ball mold. The grip scales show some handling marks, with hairline cracks off some of the rivets. The percussion nipple has been driven into the barrel and floats freely, otherwise mechanically functions.
