Links - my reference - scabbard

Just storing my info here for now as my laptop is out of commission.

The Met - Letter opener c. 1900

The Met - Designs for scissors, punches, and thimbles - anon - Fr. - 19th century

Letter Openers - works of art on the desk - ed. K.F. Buchel

I am finding a ton of images of items resembling mine on ebay and other places that aren't reputable (naturally), but not so much luck yet with reputable sources. Anyone know if there's a museum with an extensive collection of Victorian miscellany? That's what I'm trying to figure out now.
