Three Beautiful Antique Silver Paper Knives

Opening envelopes can a pretty messy affair, especially for people who have clumsy fingers. In some cases, some part of an important letter may end up being torn. That's why paper knives or letter openers are invented. Today, let's look at three beautiful silver paper knives.

Currently, Daniel Bexfield Antiques of London, UK is offering three truly exclusive antique silver paper knives. The first is the "Silver 'Sword' Paper Knife." Measuring 12 inches in length and weighing 3 troy ounces, it was crafted by H. Moreton of Birmingham, in the year 1913. Made in the style of a basket-hilted sword to protect the hand during a duel or fight, this letter opener is actually a miniature sword. The distinctive symbols on the basket hilt and the hallmarks near the base of the blade confirm its status as an antique. It's priced at 1650 sterling pounds.

The second item is the "Scottish Silver Paper Knife." Measuring 11 inches in length and weighing 4.5 troy ounces, it was crafted by R & W. Sorley of Glasgow in the year 1937. The name of this silver letter knife is probably derived from the Scottish knot designed handle. The hallmarks are noticeable at the base of the blade. Priced at 595 sterling pounds, it comes in its original casing.

The third item is the "Edwardian Silver 'Dog' Paper Knife." Measuring 7 inches in length and weighing 2.6 troy ounces, it bears the the silver import mark belonging to Andrew Barrett & Sons of London, in the year 1906. The handle is a very lively sculpture of a dog in a playful posture. It's priced at 1295 sterling pounds.

If you are looking for a meaningful gift for someone very special, these silver paper knives can be great gifts. Meanwhile, you can sell silver and get instant cash for silver. Just get in touch with a silver buyer today!
