Little multi blade knife. Steel implements. It has a hook, a file with also a groove with a file surface in it, a tiny corkscrew, a small pick or awl, and two blades (both are faulted). Probably was a lady's chatelaine or purse knife, as the hook is a glove hook, the corkscrew was for perfume, and the awl for sewing. The outer shell is ivory. The steel implements all need a clean up with fine wire wool. Basically in sound condition - the two little knives could be cut down to become a smaller blade on the small one, and regrind the edge of the larger blade. They look a lot worse than they actually are.
