A vintage Miller Bros gold-filled pocket knife with integrated cigar cutter, designed for wear as a pocket watch chain fob. The compact rectangular form houses a folding blade alongside the cigar cutter opening, reflecting the practical elegance of early personal accessories intended for daily carry.
The case shows signs of use, including light loss of gold-filled plating around the cutter opening and edges, consistent with age and handling. The knife remains fully functional, retaining its mechanical integrity and wearable presence.
Both utilitarian and collectible, this piece offers an appealing example of period gentleman’s accessories, equally suited to a watch chain, display, or continued light use.
