Continuing the theme of “Oh, the things that I’ve learned on the Porch!”  The
“herb cutting knife” is something I’ve seen many times without knowing exactly
what they were.  I’d mistakenly thought they were weavers tools! Thanks to your
informative post, I stand corrected!

Well I have heard them called that but I have always known them as herb chopping
knives.   I know that Universal made them but until I clean that guy I can't say
if there is a maker on it  It was factory made.

I’vet seen a few around here in central Missouri.  I have heard them referred to
as banana knives.  I would have purchased one recently but the asking price was
just a bit high for me.  Figured it would be good for cutting weeds.  Fairly
thin blade so should sharpen up reeeeealy sharp.

Can’t imagine how a weaver would use a knife with that length of blade with the
curve.
