Unused vintage 6.75" semi flexible hand ground carbon steel (tapered tang and blade) knife with rosette riveted beechwood handle. Blade is unmarked, handle is in the old style pre-miter cut (1950's- early 60's?) Made in Thiers France.
This was likely made for French butchers who do use a semi flexible knife to cut out silver skin but this would be great for any number of jobs where a thin but springy narrow blade is key.
Please note these can have small rust spots or imperfections, slight cants or waviness to the edge is possible as well. We do quality control on these but imperfections are part of the picture.
Please request sharpening if desired, they are not sharp now.

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.
