Dexter-Russell is still producing knives and tools in Southbridge, Mass.

[@acraftsmansarsenal]

Cool!

I had one of those "hook knifes" like that one, and sharpened it so many times, it finally got too small to be useful anymore. So I bought a new one...

[@grahamparr3933]

Where did you get that little scraper tool?

[@acraftsmansarsenal]

I found mine at an estate sale but you can find similar ones online if you search for Roach Carver or Vehe Carver.

Armstrong Flooring used issue a similar knife to contractors.

What is this type of knife used for?

[@acraftsmansarsenal]

It’s basically a utility knife.

[@georgegordonbrown9522]

In gardening?
