Unmarked 12" slicer with hand forged after drop forged and hand ground blade and rosewood handle pinned with brass rivets.

American made and made in the English style possibly by either Lamson & Goodnow or J Russell in Massachusetts as I have found this pattern made by them. It seems that knives made with this integral bolster design after the Ideal pattern in France was developed in 1920s and this knife dates to the 1920s.

This is a great knife for carving very large roasts, it would fall under the catagory of master carvers which were an old English style of knife designed to slice large roast beefs.
