Heavy chef knife from F Dick from the late 70s or 80s with fully forged stainless blade and old style pakka wood composite handle and aluminum rivets, the typical handle configuration of the 1970s and 80s before POM plastic became the norm. 

This knife had been sharpened in and has been thinned behind the edge with a very convex face, not at Bernal Cutlery but a good job was done. It's marks wer very light when we found it and in the process of cleaning light surface oxidization were lost. 

This knife would be good for heavy tasks that might damage a thinner knife better suited for vegetables.

This is a stainless steel knife. It should be hand washed and towel dried. Dishwasher use will result in degraded edge and handle. Consistent long term exposure to moisture can lead to oxidation.
Use on a quality wooden cutting board will help the knife stay sharper for longer. Use on hard surfaces like plates and bamboo will reduce the edge life and can result in edge damage.
We recommend hand sharpening on whetstones. We have found that most western knives perform best with a medium finish starting around 1000 grit. Avoid pull through sharpeners and non-water cooled mechanized sharpening. Steel honing rods work well with this knife.
