Sheffield made No.6 Rogers
Victorian (?) lever lock
auto, in Very good condition
I think I remember seeing one on Switch67 or some other site ages ago,

about UK £60

11" long, open; brass bolsters & lever; steel liners; buffalo horn scales, steel pins.
If this description fits the knife, it's Indian.
No one knows the story on these, but they have been around since at least the 1960s. In good condition they are worth about $150 US.
The crude construction of these, and the use of brass belie the Rodgers construction. Rodgers knives were of the finest quality and materials.
Sorry, but I have seen far too many people taken in by these. Even old Bill bought one many years ago!
