    Bartlett & Co. 8" Draw Knife

    Is anyone familiar with this manufacturer? The draw knife has a slight curve to it, wooden handles with metal top & bottom caps. Looks very much like many of the draw knives I have seen. The blade protrudes from a rectangular metal bar that curves to almost 90 degrees at the ends for handle attachment.

    I would post a picture but I do not have it yet.

    Google Hibbard, Spencer and Bartlett OVB.

    “Perhaps then, you will say, ‘But where can one have a boat like that built today?’ And I will tell you that there are still some honest men who can sharpen a saw, plane, or adze...men (who) live and work in out of the way places, but that is lucky, for they can acquire materials for one third of city prices. Best, some of these gentlemen’s boatshops are in places where nothing but the occasional honk of a wild goose will distract them from their work.” -- L Francis Herreshoff
