Bernal Cutlery Historically Inaccurate 5.5" - 5.75" Butcher's Utility / Field Knife Repurposed Carbon Steel USA

Assorted "Historically Inaccurate" re-ground 5.5" to 5.75" butcher's utility/field knife repurposed from a larger vintage knife. 

*Listing is for one knife, these are shown as several examples of the first run, knife you receive will most likely be different*

Originally a carbon steel knife made in the United States from about the 1920s to the 1960s, we re-ground its carbon steel blade into a curved utility knife here at Bernal Cutlery. We also re-profiled it, and the sides have a fine convex face, with many featuring an old-style long swedge along the spine. 

This knife had another whole life before being repurposed, so expect wear to the handle and 'imperfections' that might be associated with a used antique table knife. 

A quick word from Josh Donald about these:

For most people in the U.S., chef knives have taken the pole position here as the main knife. In the past a bullnose knives 7" to 8" was the daily driver. There are tons of them out there, and especially when sharpened, they offer little utility to most cooks unless they are doing butchery. They're essentially shaped like a short scimitar that existed back in the day, but these are a bit of a reimagining. As such, they are historically inaccurate and fall into this category of re-imagined, reworked vintage knives done here at Bernal. 

These are great for a wide variety of small kitchen jobs, especially those involving animal proteins, but they can also easily find their way into your hands for all sorts of tasks.
