Highly collectible with these coming up very rarely.

Made for the famous London gun making firm of Holland & Holland, in around the 1960′-70s .

The knife was likely made in Sheffield England and follows the Bowie pattern of William Rodgers or IXL Wolstonholm but cannot be sure of the British maker commissioned to make these special limited edition knives and although it has been verified by H&H, they could not tell us the actual maker as the records and serial numbers they keep only apply to the Firearms they produce.

In overall beautiful condition for its age of approx 50 years old with minimal light storage and handling marks

It has never been used or sharpened. The blade measures approximately 6 1/4 inches, with rosewood handles and a Nickel silver hilt. HOLLAND & HOLLAND is engraved on the blade. This was a limited edition series made for Holland & Holland and this knife has a serial number of 1143.
