I was drawn to the swedge, the way it sits low in the liner with small cut out to reach the long pull. Surprisingly small knife in hand compared to the.pictures online.
The examples on eBay all shared similarities in curvature in blade. Somewhere I read it was for trimming corns on feet. Ew. I inititially thought it was for corn on the cob!, yellow synthetic or bone handles and " Corn Knife" engraved on the handle. The corn knife engraving fonts varied knife to knife and direction the knife was viewed to read the writing varied.
