As above.

We’ve recently had an engineer fit a smart meter and he found this knife behind our old gas meter.

It looks an interesting thing that I think I’ll clean up. Anyone know what company made it? Its age and any information is much appreciated.

It's odd that it was hidden so well, presumably so it wouldn't be found if the police came looking?

It's a type of knife named after a famous patriot who died at the The Alamo.

Looks like an old Scouts knife, look for reference to Solingen , my mate had one very similar when we were kids

It's could be the knife used to kill Caligula AD51 and worth £zillions.

There again it's more like a kids that was confiscated by his parents hence hidden.

I agree, I had one just like it that I got at Great Tower in the lakes. Probably of no value.

Looks a bit cheap- certainly doesn’t look like Solingen.
