Half tang cleaver identification

[Chef Jon]

Any idea who made this? It survived a barn fire in Texas. I removed the charged handle bits. Brass pins. No markings. Spent a day in the electrolysis tank. The pitting seems to be original rather than due to rust.

If it was in a fire the HT is most likely gone! Drag a file across the spine $ see if it skips or digs in. There were many mfg’s around the world that could have made it? The handle would have been had an inlet to accommodate that tang. Good luck!
