Munn & Co.- patent attorneys
This invention consists in combining a mincing knife or cutter, and a cleaver, in such a manner that one and the same implement may be used either in the capacity of a cleaver or a mincing knife, as desired. In using the implement as a cleaver, the handle is grasped horizontally, in the usual way, the cutting edge rising and falling in the vertical plane; but in using the device as a mincing-knife or chopper, the handle is grasped vertically, and worked up and down in that position.
Blade is stamped "Disston, Philada, Warranted, Patent July 21st, 1868."
