An excellent set of British c.1900’s / WW1 British Army Officer’s campaign cutlery. Of top quality manufacture and with polished bone handles and electro-plated knife, fork and spoon. The cutlery is deeply stamped with maker’s stamps to the spoon and knife. These campaign cutlery sets were very popular during the Boer War and WW1 and would have been privately purchased by an officer and were an essential part of their military campaign kit. There is a plated cartouche inset to each of the bone handles – officers usually added their initials but this example is unusually plain.
Full working order
All in full working order with the opening and shutting actions still sharp and crisp. The average length of each piece is 7.5 inches. An unusual and very personal addition for the collector of British military Boer War and WW1 collectables. These military campaign cutlery sets are quite scarce now as many were broken up and lost over the years or used post-war until no longer serviceable and eventually discarded.
