    An antique brass and enamel letter opener.

    It has a double headed eagle and a peacock on the sheath.
    I thought probably Russian or Greece, there are a lot about on Google images, some say Greek, some say Austrian, some say Egyptian, some say Ottoman, some say Byzantion Turkish

    The knife befuzzles me too. The double eagle should be a clue, but it was used in too many places.

    Found today for $5.60. Posting on the glass board. For someone who is not into glass, I keep finding pieces.

    Surprising how many of those can be found on the internet. This one still has pen.
