This knife sharpener was manufactured by Brookes & Adams but does not carry their name or the Bandalasta brand. It was marketed as part of the Banda Household Utilities range.
This Bandalasta sharpener is in the brown colour but it was also sold in mottled red and mottled green.
It has the name Rotary on the top together with patent and registered design numbers. The patent number dates the design of the sharpener blades to 1925 but the registered design number dates the overall design to 1931. Instructions for use are included on the underside of the metal insert.
Size 100mm x 48 mm wide overall, height is 45mm.
The sharpener has been used and so there is some scratching but overall it is in good condition.
Please note. I do my best to accurately photograph and describe the condition of the items for sale, including any minor defects but all pieces are vintage and have had previous lives and so may have minor flaws.
