The listing, UNUSUAL Vintage Knife 1901 Award From Pope? Pro Christo Et Ecclesia has ended.
This is a very UNUSUAL item I found at an estate sale recently. It looks like a butter knife, but the handle is shaped like a nail. It's marked "Patented 1901-02". The blade is marked "Pro Christo Et Ecclesia". I researched it and found the inscription is associated with a Papal award of some kind, given for exemplary service to the Church. I'm not sure what it is, but I've never seen anything like it. See photos for condition. It measures a little over 6" long. Shipping in the US is FREE, US bidders ONLY, must have verified address. All Listia rules apply. Check out my other auctions! Thanks for looking!
