Hand-Forged Knife & Spoon Set – Signed ◇, Rat Tail Handle, 6"/4.25"

This hand-forged steel camp or utility set includes a compact knife and deep-bowled spoon, both featuring traditional blacksmithing craftsmanship and marked with a diamond (◇) stamp near the handle — likely the maker’s signature. Each piece is formed from a single steel billet, with a hammered finish and curled “rat tail” style handles typical of period or frontier-inspired tools.

The knife measures 6 inches overall with a 3.5-inch blade, showing a slight curve and integral hook at the pommel — ideal for hanging. The spoon, 4.25 inches in length, has a rounded bowl and matching diamond stamp. Together, these pieces represent functional, folk-style metalwork, likely intended for camp or reenactment use but also ideal for rustic display or collecting.

An appealing example of signed artisan craftsmanship with consistent style and forge marks throughout.

Condition

Good condition overall, with some wear and patina consistent with age and hand-forged construction. Surfaces show intentional texture and forging marks. No cracks or damage. Please refer to photos for detail.
