Amputating knife
The amputating knife is a large straight knife with a narrow elongated
blade (17 to 23 cm long) that cuts on one or both sides. The width of the
blade varies between 2 and 3 cm. Today, the one-piece amputating knife uses
chromed steel or stainless steel. Before the 19th century the handle was
often made of ebony or ivory and the blade made of steel. The cutting blade
usually ends in a sharp dagger point, i.e. a point in the longitudinal axis
of the blade, or in a rounded cutting end. The surgeon uses this knife to
amputate part or all of limbs. The knife easily cuts through the skin,
muscles and tendons. The amputating knife is usually used in conjunction
with the amputating saw. [MOT]
Ani-ani
This rice knife is an extremely light (approx. 20-60 gr) knife with which
women in Indonesia harvest rice. It has a small (approx. 5-7 cm by 1-2 cm)
and very light (max. 5 gr), slightly convex blade, set in a bamboo handle
at the top. Transverse to the top of the handle a bamboo stick - sometimes
pointed on one side - is placed, which is held in the handle; this makes
the knife more comfortable in the hand. Because you have to harvest ear by
ear with this knife, it is possible to select the ripe ears in the same
field and leave the others standing for a while. [MOT]
