200 AD Swiss Army Knife

First Swiss army knife in the world has been unearthed in the Mediterranean Sea 20 years ago. This knife would have been designed approximately 200 AD at the time of ancient Rome.

At present the knife is placed in the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, England where large collections of artifacts materials that date back to the ancient Rome and Greece period are preserved.

The knife is made of silver. In addition it has a spoon along with the blades. It also has a fork, spatula, small toothpick and a spike says the Daily Mail.

The knife is about 3”*6” size and it demonstrates the skill and the potential of the Roman Empire peoples.
