This knife is a vintage blade from the Clyde Cutlery factory in ohio that burned down in the early 1970's. I'd bet it's 1095 carbon. It is thin stock,ground real thin,to the point that the tip section has flex. The blade was salvaged from the plant,I cleaned up the tarnish and it has like a scotch brite rubbed finish. I put some old canvas micarta that I got here on the forums. 11-3/4" of razor thin slicer edge. Your london broil or roast beef will be no match for this. I'd bet the Rc is in the 58 range and this should be real easy to keep a wicked edge on it. Full size handle is comfortable,and it's not polished out too much so you'll feel the benefit of canvas micarta at this finish,when it's wet or you have food oils etc on your hand. I sold all of these I had,plus other styles too,everyone was pleased . I was keeping this one for myself ,but you know the story.
Pictures suck,but this is an awesome slicer with a vintage blade.
