CHARLES F. SMITH, OF NEW BRITAIN, CONNECTICUT, ASSIGNOR T0 LANDERS, FRARY & CLARK, A CORPORATION OF CONNECTICUT.
KNIFE.
Application filed January 31, 1923. Serial No. 615,980.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that 1, CHARLES F. SMITH, a citizen of the United States, residing at New Britain, county of Hartford, and State of Connecticut, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Knives, fully described and represented in thefollowing specification and the accompanying draw ings, forming a part of the same.
This invention relates to an improvement in knives, and more particularly kitchen knives.
It is the principal object of the invention to provide a knife having a finger guard and one that is simple in construction and economical to manufacture.
With this general object in View the invention consists in the combinations, details of construction and arrangements of parts which will first be described in connection with the accompanying drawing and then more particularly pointed out.
In the drawing- Fig. 1 is a side face View of a knife constructed in accordance with the invention;
Fig. 2 is a rear edge view and partly in section; and
Fig. 3 is a cross sectional View taken on the line 3-3 of Fig. 2.
Referring to the drawing- The knife illustrated as an example, comprises a blade 11 and hilt 12 formed in a single, fiat piece. The blade 11 may have such configuration and edge as may be desired.
The knife is provided with a handle which may be formed in various ways. In the pres ent embodiment the handle is made up of two blocks of wood, or other suitable material, one on each side of the hilt. As shown, the block 13 has a. flat face 14:, which lies against the flat hilt 12 and its width is substantially the width of the hilt. The edges of the block are bevelled as at 15, to do away with sharp edges and provide a proper grip.
On the opposite side of the hilt is located a second block 16 which is, as here shown, identical with block 13 except that its inner flat face is cut out or rabbeted as at 17,
for a short distance from the blade end.
There is provided a finger guard for permitting the hand of the user from slipping OK the handle onto the blade. This may be accomplished,- for example, by an angle piece, one wing of which extends outwardly transverse the plane of the blade. As here illustrated, a guard is provided by means of an angle piece having a guard wing 18 and a securing wing 19. The securing wing seats in the space provided by rabbeting the face of block 16. As appears in Fig. 2, the space is so dimensioned that the wing 19 is flush with the inner flat face of block 16. When the securing wing is in position, the guard wing 18 extends outwardly at the inner end of the handle, at right angles to the blade. I
The parts are secured together by a plurality of fastening elements such, for example, as rivets 20 which pass through the two blocks 13, 16, the hilt 12 and the securing wing 19. As shown, additional rivets are provided at intervals along the handle. I
When the handle is gripped by the user, the forward portion of'the handle bears or may bearagainst the guard wing 18, which serves to prevent the handle from slipping. The guard is firmly anchored in place. The knife described is formed of parts that are economically produced and economically as sembled.
What I claim is;
1. A knife comprising a blade and a hilt in one piece, two blocks between which the hilt is located and which form a handle, an angle piece having one wing extending outwardly from the blade and transverse thereto to serve as a guard and the other wing located between the hilt and one of theblocks to secure the guard in place, and a fastening element extending through said blocks, se curing wing and hilt. v
2.2L knife comprising a blade, a hilt, a handle embracing the hilt, an angle piece having one wing extending outwardly from the blade and transverse theretoto serve as a. guard and the other wing located between the hilt and handle to secure the guard in placeand a fastening element for securing hilt, handle and wing together.
set my hand.
