Whats your most "unusual" traditonal??

That puma is one I've been looking for, for the last 30 years, I've only seen one in person.

That's a pattern I wish someone would remake.
 
Here's an early quill knife c1825 ish. The master blade has two edges and a small file. The short edge just ahead of the file lines up with the "Nail nick" on the ivory handle as a guillotine for cutting the tip off the quill pen.

Best regards

high school.

It's a knife which is also a balance for weighing the fish. You hang the fish on the back of the blade and hold it by the center thong. When the knife is horizontal, you read the weight from the notch from which the fish is hanging.

interesting, I would have thought the weight was just for braining fish that were gonna go in the frying pan.
