Last weekend I bought a can opener, paint scraper, paint stirrer
that used to be a large longish paring chisel, I think. The blade
is marked with
MURCOTT&
CAMPBELL
and is 1 5/16" by 7 7/8" tapering to 7/8" for the 1 3/16" closest
to the handle. The tang is rather narrow, about 3/8" where it
goes into a threadded looking colar, square peg into round hole
type of fit, with another 7/8" long thinner collar around that.
I couldn't find any reference to the maker and thought I'd ask
before trying to revive it.
TIA
