Antique Handmade Hook Knife — Spoon Carving Knife, Wood Handle

An antique handmade hook knife (also known as a spoon carving knife) — a specialized woodworking tool with a curved, hooked blade tip designed for hollowing out concave surfaces. These knives were the essential tool for carving wooden spoons, bowls, and cups, allowing a smooth scooping cut that a straight blade can't achieve.

The blade retains its distinctive hooked profile and shows an honest, even patina consistent with genuine age and use. The wood handle is solid and secure on its two pins.
