0, riveted or otherwise permanently secured,
thereto. D is the handle, made of wood, bent as shown, and passed through the blade immediately below the stay 0, and its front end fastened on top of the blade by means ot'a bolt,
a, passing through the blade and handle. This bolt is to have a T shaped head, and a T-shaped washer to be placed on its other end, thereby preventing the splitting of either blade or handle. The handle is further held by means ot'a staple, 11, passing around the same and through the stay and blade, as shown.
By this construction a convenient, durable, and useful tool is obtained.
Having thus. fully described my invention, what 1 claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
