The 80-blade knife is an oversized pocketknife with 80 blades. It has knives, hooks, saws, forks, and a clip. The knives are made of steel but the body of the pocketknife is probably wood. It was probably made to show off what Britain could do with steel. It was also made to show what new inventions England could produce. On the side of the pocketknife there are pictures of foxes being hunted. On the blades are pictures of kings, queens, and crowns. It was most likely made for the upper class or Queen Victoria and Prince Albert. Only upper class people hunted foxes and became kings and queens. It would also be way too expensive for the working class. On the side of the blade is what looks like a picture of Prince Albert who was in control of the Great Exhibition where the knife was on display. |
This eighty-blade knife was, personally, a total waste of time and money. I mean, it is unique and special, but really, who is going to need eighty different blades? Suffragettes have no need for a knife. Lords have no need for a knife. Kings and Queens have no need for a knife. The only person that would really have any need for a knife is a peasant and a peasant probably wouldn’t be able to afford a 2 blade knife let alone an eighty-blade knife.~~~ "A Suffragette"
