Crafted by the reputable Reading Hardware Co, this antique Standard Tobacco Knife Cutter #12 is a testament to classic tool design and durability. Patented in 1880, this cast iron cutter is a piece of history, proudly made in the United States, and remains a functional collectible to this day.


This tobacco cutter is in good condition with movable arm.  It shows signs of wear from age.  I did find a crack in the part that holds the blade and have pictured this close-up in the last two pictures.  Please see all pictures for a more detailed description of the condition of this item.
