Item D1 - Jigger or
Howeling Knife.
This
“one armed” draw knife most closely resembles the “jigger” or Howeling knfie
used to chamfer the inside of a cask. This one, however, having an edge length
of only 3 ¾” inches would work on a very small cask. Moreover the edge is
straight, not concave. Not a modified draw knife, the right side handle is
forged continuously from the handle, is slightly bulbous, and bears a maker’s
mark, LIE.” The handle on the other side is bent at a right angle to the blade,
it has a harddwood handle (with check) and a steel ferrule. The length of the
blade and straight handle is 8”. There Is a colllection number on the ferrule.
Fine.
Price - $50.00.
