Whaling blubber spades x 2
Priced at £300 each
A whaling blubber spade was a heavy, long-handled tool with a wide metal blade, used by whalers to cut large slabs of blubber from a whale's carcass, especially after it was hauled onto the flensing deck, allowing them to strip it for oil-rendering. It was crucial for processing the catch, working alongside flensing knives to separate the oil-rich blubber from the meat, and was an essential part of the whaling industry that supplied oil for lighting and other products.
