Pictures of my Dicks.
It is an F. Dick pig knife for those who distain wimpy spears and like to get up close and personal when dispatching wild pigs.
I prefer a .30 caliber bullet.
I got it as it is a beautiful dagger blade (the synthetic handle is a bit Meh to look at but a fabulous grip). Blade length is 8 inches (just over 20 cm).
I don’t know if they are still made.
My other Dick??
This old smooth steel from the abattoir days 40 years ago and it was old then. It is quite valuable. Cost a bomb back then and I don’t think that it has gone down in value since. It is unusual in that it is smooth by manufacture – not hours spent rubbing down on a brick.
Want to put a shaving edge on a carbon steel blade, here’s the Dick for it.
A bit of a strange name for cutlery , like Smeg appliances, and I’m sure you can imagine the jokes emanating from the name…..”can I borrow your Dick?” etc.etc.
Anyway, just thought I share with the other knife freaks here.
For every expert there is an equal and opposite expert.
