Description

NZ WWZMJZEW N- PETERS. PHOTO-LITHOGRAPHER. WASHINGTON. D C.
I dltted (States,
me entre MATTHEW CHAPMAN, OF GREENFIELD, MASSACHUSETTS.
Letters Patent No. 106,254, 1a-ted August 9, 1870.
10 all whom. it may concern..-
'lhesamc letters are used in all the figures in the designation of identical parts.
This invention relates to the manufacture of tableknives, and similar articles of cutlery; and
My improvement consists in the construction of the handle, which I propose to make of two scales of common bone, ueatlyjointed and cemented together, and bound at t-he end which receivesthe tang ofthe knife by a ferrule, and at the other end by a metallic cap,v a handle apparently solid,
furnishing, when finished, and nearly as graceful as the more expensive ones iliade of ivory.
To enable those skilledin the art to make and use my invention, I will proceed to describe it more specically.
In manufacturing these handles, for which the common shin-bones of beef-cattle, on account of their quality and cheapness, are well adapted, two scales,
A A, of bone, of the required dimensions, are first nicely jointed together, selecting their most perfect `surfaces for that purpose, and next cemented together, so as to make a tine joint.
The -ends are then reduced in size, andfformed to receive, one the ferrule B, and the other the ca-p O, which I prefer to make of the form shown, and of the composition known as white metal.
After the ferrule and cap have been firmly secured, the handle is finished by properlyrounding and polishing its surface, and boring a hole in the end bound by -the ferrule for tbe reception of the tang of the knifel or other instrument, which is secured in itin the `usual manner.
If proper care be taken to make a fine and neat joint between the scales, such joint, izn dressing their surfaces, will be so hidden as to escape notice on a superficial inspection, and the finished handle will closely resemble a solid one made of ivory, .to which it is preferable,.for ordinary purposes, on account of its cheapness, as well as its superior strength.
What I claim as my invention, and desirev to secure by Letters Patent, is
The handle, herein described, composed of the two scales A A, cemented together, and bound by the ferrule B and cap C, substantially as set forth.
MATTHEW CHAPMAN.
