1930s Vintage 12 Curved Carbon Steel Blade Scimitar Butcher Knife

1930s Vintage 12 Curved Blade - UNMARKED - Carbon Steel Breaking/ Breaker Butcher Knife. Vintage Scimitar Butcher Knife with Blackened Carbon Steel Blade & Wood Handle. This knife has the blade hand forged from the fine carbon steel and tempered to achieve greater toughness providing the long-lasting keen edge cut-ability. The handle is secured with three pins over the full tang to good fitting for durability, strength, & balance.

This knife is used to break-down whole animals into smaller cuts. Pitting & patina on both sides of the blade (normal for hi-carbon steel, prevents corrosion), blade structure & handle structure are good. One insignificant nick in the blade, detailed in picture.

Missing 1/2 a brass pin. Hand wash only with warm water after using, especially if used on foods that are acidic. After washing, wipe the blade and handle completely dry.

These types of knives are the "cast-iron pans" of cutlery.
