Antique Wood Handle Food Chopper with Rectangular Blade This is an older, better primitive Wood Handle Chopper with a Rectangular Blade. While we don't know the exact age, this appears to be a more primitive, older piece. The wood handle is older, turned in a way that curves in slightly before the outer edges, with several vertical lines for décor/gripping. But most importantly, the metal for the blade is all one piece and extends through the handle to a visible rough rounded end at the top of the handle which suggests hand forging although weI can't guarantee that...it certainly is of the older modes of making these pieces, though. There is much wear suggesting age via discoloration, spotting and rusting on the blade, wear/chipping/spotting on the handle (including some white spots which suggest paint transfer from something else), etc. There is a rough chip on the topside of the handle where the metal comes through with a piece of wood slightly sticking up here. On the ends of the handle, on one side there is a small indented rough circle, with the other end showing some lines/cracking at the center...we don't know if this is from how the handle was inserted onto the blade, use wear or what. Note that you can see in the images that the wood handle is not "straight" on the piece...it is solidly on the metal but tilted, either by design or from use, we don't know which. A really nifty primitive piece.

Old Wood Handle Food Chopper with Rounded Blade The pictures pretty much show it all. This is an old piece but we don't know the exact age. It measures about 8 inches in width x 5 1/2 inches in height. The piece is fully attached, but when you shake it the blade rattles slightly, so it is not absolutely tight. It has expected wear and darkening, but is in really nice old shape. The wear/aging/use includes on the wood handle some small chipping, scrapping and scarring, and on the metal chopper there is spotting, small rust spots, dark tarnished spots, scraping/use lines/scarring as to be expected from an antique or vintage piece used over the years.
