Our knives are made of the very best mate 

 rial and by the same local workmen for the 

 past 30 years. There have been many imita- 

 tors of the Bingham Knife which accounts 

 for the various poor contraptions on the 

 market. The new Cold Handle is a decided 

 improvement over all others as it fits the 

 hand perfectly; the lower part of the wood 

 handle projects down along side the shank 

 of the knife, forming a Thumb Rest that 

 does not become hot when used with hot 

 water or steam. Mr. Townsend says this 

 knife appears to be the best yet produced.
