Classy. Take the time to disparage the given advice but balk at explaining.

Are you looking for tutorial how to post pictures here too ?

Nope. I found the site that was first mentioned and found it much easier than what you recommended.

Well all that sure helped the OP answer her question didn't it?
Anybody know anything about the knife?
I would suggest to Carolyn Nutt Jackson-(cool name) that she use the report Triangle at bottom left of her post and ask a mod to move it to BR Levines knife ID sub forum.
Probably a lot more knowledge and less drama.

Whatever suits you.
But post tutorial to OP too, please.

Use post https://postimages.org/

From there, look for a link that ends with a .jpg or something similar.

Copy the link.

Then get back here and click on the image icon.

Paste the link.

You should then be able to post a image.

Thanks everyone, I was making it much harder than it was, just to let you know I was clicking on the pic above to download and putting the url there like it asked me to. Not here. Go figure.

Yep, I can see the pics now. I did a google image search and found nothing. I would have thought an image search of the bull would find some info.

I'm not into chef knives so I don't know. Sorry.

My thought on that cleaver mark is it may be newer. Marking it "carbon steel" doesn't seem like something they would do a long time ago when most cookware was made of carbon.

Have it moved to Levines sub-forum. Lot of knowledge there. The stamp looks like a water buffalo.
Yes they did mark old knives with "Carbon Steel"--KV

I'd love to see an example.

This was my mothers meat cleaver, she had it as long as I can remember and I'm fifty one and now mine. I'm just looking for some history on it if I can find it. Thanks for your help, I have asked to have it moved over to Levines sub-forum last night. Waiting to hear back that it has happened.
