sweet. is that a 2 blade? or blade w/spatula?
Very nice!
Queen did a fine job on those Robeson's during the late 90's and early 2000's. They got pretty close to the vintage Robeson strawberry bone, too.
Great knife! Congrats!
thank you sir
Great looking Robeson Tim!
you are welcome leo.
In the days of the horse-drawn buggy, the pill-buster was an indispensable tool that assisted the country physician. Gone are doctors making calls door to door, but the famous pillbuster lives on. The handy Doctor's Knife was designed as a utilitarian tool ... the long spear blade was used to cut pills in half, while the flat end design was for grinding pills into powder. Occasionally a special spatula blade was attached to help mix salves. This elegant knife will make an excellent conversation piece - it's a part of our country's early medical history.
well that makes 3 of us. I have typically seen other brands of this style referred to as 'Doc's Knife' also.
Some one on here will know the answer Leo , I would be interested to know the story myself.
