Simon Moore (3)

Maybe to the antiques lovers this will sound like old news, but many people probably ignore how relevant a place pocket fruit knives and forks occupy in the Antiques Trade. 1968 is the year Simon Moore, the author of Pocket Fruit Knives, A Synopsis of their History from the United Kingdom, France, Northern Europe & USA, started collecting. At that time, the market was much richer in these cutlery pieces than today. With the spreading of interest via the Internet, these items have been selling on e-bay and similar websites for some years, that have in fact changed the conditions and the whole spirit of collecting as well.

Pocket Fruit Knives is a comprehensive book that shows a huge amount of folding fruit knife varieties, enriched with introductions, technical explanations, historical patterns, and the twist of the writer’s personal experience.
