Very Old Letter-Opener in Leather Cover

A very rare to find Letter Opener in the original leather (?) pocket. The Letter Opener seems to be a brass metal in the shape of a sword. I can not see markings.  It is quite heavy. It measures 18 cm in Length and 4.5 cm at it's widest point.is  This item is so very old, that I am reluctant to try and clean it up, I would not wish to detract from it's character.  The Leather cover's stitching is missing in some places.  It has engraved in Gold: "May I Bring You Good News".  This is truly a very old item, please only bid if you are willing to accept it as such.

 Postage is R55.00 per item.  If you choose to insure your parcel, please add on 3% of the Value.

I am happy to combine Postage costs, if possible, for multiple winning bids. Each additional item is R10.00 extra.

Regret I do not allow collections as my Office is home-based. I trust you will understand.
