Including hoof pick, master blade, corkscrew, awl, gimlet, saw, fleam, lancet, button hook and flat screwdriver. Set in a steel frame with chequered bone scales. Made by Gallimore Bros. of Sheffield. I’m assuming that it is a set of tweezers that are missing from the slot in the handle but since they’re missing it’s kind of hard to tell for sure. Probably from the 1890’s

Although it’s only a folding knife the blade is 4” so it isn’t a legal carry. I’ve given it a little strop and it takes a heck of an edge. You’d better pack another bottle of scotch for your trip down here if you want it Mark. 🤣
