Giant, Ancient F. Dick Knife at Lunardi's San Bruno's Knife Sharpening Stop!

I always enjoy it when somebody brings in anything unusual or different. Something that I have not see while sharpening knives.

Large Vintage F. Dick Knife

This knife definitely fits that last sentence! This is a giant F. Dick knife. The guy that brought it in to be sharpened said he found it stuck into the ground in a back yard that he was cleaning up.

Here is the same knife photographed with a Quarter so you can get a size perspective.

The knife was in pretty good shape — considering how it was found. The steel was heavily pitted, and the wood of the handle was cracked a bit, but overall still complete, intact, the handle was not loose or anything.
