An assortment of two vintage multi-tool folding camping utensil sets, commonly known as hobo knives. The first set features a take-apart construction in white metal with a polished finish. It incorporates a large spoon, a folding fork, a knife blade, and a corkscrew nested within a tiered frame. The second, more substantial set is constructed from stainless steel with a brushed metal finish to the handle scales. This multi-layered tool includes a spoon, fork, knife blade, and a bottle/can opener. Both items utilize a folding mechanism where the utensils pivot on pins at either end of the frame, designed for compact storage and portable use during outdoor activities. No legible maker’s marks or stamps are visible on the metal surfaces.
