<p>[QUOTE="Bev aka thelmasstuff, post: 9748437, member: 23"]I'm going with repro on this. My mother was a cook in the Army in the 40s and had her own restaurant in the 50s. I inherited a lot of knives - she loved knives - and various cutting implements. Bone saws, cleavers, etc. People think that roughly made items mean they are older. Not true. Stuff was made to last and craftsmen were true artists. An older version of this would not be so crudely decorated. That's only my opinion for what it's worth.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
