OLD KNIFE ?

[jeff]

What is it used for gents ?

I found it in my pole barn and looked over the internet for a possible use for it but no luck, thought I would go ahead and try making a new handle face for it maybe.
Thanks

I could see it being a farrier tool pretty easy. One end to scrap the hoof of dirt, the other end to pull a old shoe? Just a guess.

I'd say cutting twine and flaking hay....

I Know what your Knife is. Its an old Italian seamans knife with a single blade missing/broke off. If you are interested in a new one here is the link to buy.
