A rare, vintage pocket knife by Richards of Sheffield, England.  The obverse grip bears colorful imagery of Paul Kruger, President of the South African Republic and Christiaan de Wet, Boer general, rebel leader and politician.  The reverse grip is faux mother-of-pearl.  Both blade and corkscrew open and close smoothly.  The blade is stamped "Richards, Sheffield, England" with the "lamp post" logo to one side and "Rustless Chromium Plated" to the other.  The printing is still vibrant and clear.  Note : The knife could have had a belt loop.  If so, this is no longer present.  A great collector's piece.

Length (fully open) : 12.2cm

Length (fully closed) : 7cm

Richards was arguably the only twentieth-century Sheffield firm to make a fortune from what had been one of the cutlery industrys staples the manufacture of pocket knives.  Significantly, the roots of the company lay not in Sheffield, but in that rival German cutlery centre of Solingen.  In 1900, the brothers Heinrich and Johann Richartz had launched Gebruder Richartz & Soehne.   They made pocket knives, scissors, and table cutlery, sporting a LAMP POST logo.  In 1932, descendants Paul Peter Richartz (1888-1961) and Stephan Richartz (1898-1974) started a cutlery factory in Broomhall Street, Sheffield, England.
