Vintage Foster Bros gold star series scimitar with very full 14" carbon steel blade and rosewood handle with brass star rivets. 

While the blade has not been sharpened in much the handle does show some wear from use and had a crack at the butt which has been epoxied, it is tight and secure and there are no large gaps or problem spots. 

The blade had some rust which has left some shallow pits and pepper spots, I opted to leave them rather than resurface the face as the appearance matches the condition of the handle. 

Always cool to find these they come around very seldom, especially in this XXL size. 

14" blade, 19 3/4" overall 13.1 oz 

This is a carbon steel knife. Carbon steel is expected to develop a dark patina with use. It needs to be hand washed and towel dried soon after use. Do not air dry. Do not put it in the dishwasher. Long exposure to moisture and debris will result in rust. Any rust development should be removed with a light abrasive.

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.
