Foster Bros 10” Bullnose Scimitar Carbon Steel Hardwood Handle

Mid 20th C Foster Bros 10" bullnose scimitar (curved spine and edge rather than straight edged bullnose) with carbon steel blade and beech handle. 

This knife had been a but thick behind the edge from being sharpened down a bit. It has been re-profiled and thinned but is about 1/8" narrower and shorter than original dimensions. It is however the proper thickness behind the edge to get back to work and enter its second act. These were made with really great high carbon content steel and deserve their cult status. 

This blade is not stainless, expect a patina to form with use, it can rust so no dishwasher or soaking. Clean and dry after use.
