Whittlers Necklace 25-05 and small imperfections left intactA series of necklaces made from vintage miniature knives and . 925 sterling silver box chains. Each knife is left in its original condition and kept unsharpened, or not too sharp, so it functions as a small object rather than a tool. Most are marked Japan, though markings, handle materials, and blade shapes vary by piece. The knives are treated as found objects, with their age, surface wear, and small imperfections left intact.
