A paper knife or letter opener is a knife-like object used to open envelopes. Letter openers may be composed of wood, metal, plastic, sometimes even ivory, or a combination of materials.
Pictures below show the buffalo horn letter opener (in the shape of 'kelewang') with silver mount from my collection. It is believed to have originated from the State of Kelantan, Malaysia. The 'kelewang' is a popular traditional single-edged sword from Kelantan.
