The Japanese letterknife, shown above, is more like a handsome piece of jewelry than a utilitarian desk accessory. The chromed blade extends from a silver handle—ambitiously hand-engraved with scrolling botanicals. Furthermore, a retractable penknife folds into the handle—ever-ready to sharpen one's quill pen. This handsome letterknife was made in the 1950's. Click on the photo above to learn more about it.
