With my terrible memory, it was great to read it all again as if for the first time Charlie!

I'm a charter member of your "Memory Club", Jack!!

Thanks for the bump Charlie. I enjoy learning about different types of traditional knives, especially when there are pictures.

I, too, love looking at the pictures, Christian!! Worth a thousand words indeed!!

Another bump in an International knife saga!!
I thought I'd carry this Mozzetta today, mostly to contemplate its historical importance.
Wound up reading the whole thread again!!
Worth it, and fun!!

This was my first time reading this thread! Missing photos notwithstanding, this certainly was fun and fascinating!

I enjoyed reading through this again - so thank you Charlie for me reawakening this Thread.
There seems to be a number of different blade shapes for the Castration.
I have a German Knife that has deeply etched “ Castration Knife” and the blades are more a hybrid of a Spey and Drop-point blades.
This blade represents closer the Rope knife shape - but Charlie I am interested - how sharp does this blade get?
Some grinds can have one breaking out in a Sweat just looking at the edge!
This one has that look to me - how do you find this?
