Top blade: A fleam? Veterinary?

Neither ... tho a veterinary (or s/he's secretary/receptionist) might use one.
From the days when dip and fountain pens were "king".
It is an "ink eraser" used to scrape an "oops" (includes blobs) off the paper or parchment.
Back then most - if not all - cutlery companies made them.

I want to get one, since my pen of choice is a fountain pen.

Had to put the ‘tinas to my ‘25 GEC Ramfoot as I was starting to get the odd Red Dread splotches… He wears it well

I'm curious how you get such an even patina. It looks great!

I've seen those before, but this one seemed different. I am a fountaineer, too!

Sorry for missing this. I can see why you'd think that, but afishhunter hit the nail on the head They come in different forms and sizes



I do have a couple of fleams, if I can find a photo

Just got one of these a couple days ago. Overall not bad for the price, but dull as heck. Reprofiled it a bit and it's in my pocket now.
