Post by: mdtools on July 27, 2016, 10:58:10 AM

This one has a curved blade on one side and another straight blade on the end...maybe for leather working or something???

It is called a banana knife or a grocer's knife.  I like mine for cutting cheese.

Mine has a finer tip on the end & makes a great letter opener.  It  is marked "LEIGH BANANA CASE CO. CHICAGO, ILL"  The Leigh firm made the roughly cylindrical shipping crates.
