Hi
Thank you to administration for accepting me as a new member. !
I am trying to find some information about a butchers cleaver ( l think), found in my family’s possessions. It may have been my fathers, or my grandfathers. I remember my late mother telling me it was my fathers. And why she kept that is interesting to me, as they divorced when l was young, in 1971. So l think it may have been something of significance at one time. I know they lived and worked on a cattle station here in Australia at one stage. Everyone on both their sides of family have passed , so l cannot ask any relatives. I would like to hand it down in my family if it is authentic.
So if any members can shed any light upon this piece, about its authenticity, approx year made, or anything at all… that would be super.! I’d really appreciate some help, as l have researched the manufacturer at 4 sycamore street Sheffield England, but cannot seem to find one that looks quite the same.
It is in very good condition, like l mentioned, my mother kept it after dad left in 1971, it is quite heavy. Am posting some photos in the hope someone may be able to help.
