.....Ok ask a stupid question haha more to the point then, does anyone know what the "fish" shaped one is for or also the straight edged blade on the other folder?
I found these while i was house clearing yesterday.

I think maybe at one time it could have been a Razor?
No stamps on the "fish" one but I.X.L is stamped on the other two along with "George Wostenholm" Sheffield.

Thanks everyone!
Never even thought it would be something to do with pipe smoking even though swimbo grandad (where it came from) always had one hanging out his mouth!
