Reading time: 1 minute
The world’s smallest penknife is set to be sold at auction as part of a collection.
The knife, which is believed to be the smallest in existence, is 7mm (0.28 inches) in length and is smaller than a penny.
It is part of a collection of more than 160 antique swords and pistols worth around £40,000, according to auctioneers Hansons.
The knife was made in Sheffield in about 1850, BBC News reports.
The collection will be auctioned on 15 August at Hansons Auctioneers in Richmond upon Thames.
