This letter opener is 8 inches long. I found it when I was cleaning out some items. It was inside a box that I'm guessing it came in. On the handle, you can see an emblem and it looks to me like it reads Vicksburg Miss. Courthouse Museum so I'm guessing that it was probably purchased on a trip at some point as a souvenir. It would've been many years ago. Located in McPherson Kansas. Feel free to ask any
