My new favorite muzzleloading pocket knife - Boxlock FLINTLOCK pistol and pocket knife

Muzzleloaders are cool and document cultural identities and histories, but sometimes the curiosities are a lot of fun too. Today we're taking a look at this boxlock pocket knife for a trip into the weird.

The overall length of this interesting combination english pocket knife and pistol is just 6 5/8 inches with the blade closed. The blade is 5 inches long and has a "crown/7" on the left. The knife has two-piece stag-horn or bone scales and an iron cross style washer. The pistol has scroll engraving, false rifling, "crown/7" and "crown/V" marks at the breech followed by a "crown/V" mark, and backward curled trigger.
