HUGE 1800s WM BEATTY & SON CHESTER ANTIQUE BUTCHER MEAT CLEAVER MARKED #3 4LB

There is a small crack in the handle, which is normal. The cleaver is very tight. The logo is strong and the blade is in great shape. So it is at least 182 years old. Rare to find one in this condition!

The "sons" referred to in W. Beatty & Sons" is contradictory to the singular "& SON of their maker's mark. This could refer to John C. While "& Sons" was added to the name in 1839, John doesn't appear to have joined until 1840. 1800s WM BEATTY & SON CHESTER ANTIQUE PRIMITIVE MEAT CLEAVER MARKED #3.
