<p>[QUOTE=&quot;the blacksmith, post: 10418140, member: 20148&quot;]Not sure about the first one, but the possible carpet knife idea sounds very plausible. However, it appears to have some age to it.....when did fitted carpets emerge I wonder. That said, we do use a quite similar knife in leatherwork, a wicked tool called a &#039;Satans claw&#039;. This is used from underneath a large hide to quickly cut out intricate shapes, and of course, being underneath the hide, reduces the risk of slipping and ruining the surface of the leather...........But mind the fingers, if you do slip it is well capable of cutting your fingers off too![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
