Blade of a knife?

Is it for cutting pastry?

Spot on "Steak Knife" is it.
Here is the picture in more light and my primitive setup to get two color light, through house hold items!

Game is on you Peter, if you have an image or can make it soon. If not, please say it and anyone with image ready can follow.

I will try and get one sorted but if anyone has one ready to go please go for it.

Who is it
 

I'll just throw this in then. Who is the famous person in this photo?
If its too hard I'll post a clearer version in a day or two.

Well Peter is famous enough but I don't think that is his avatar picture!:)

1- Looking at file name, didn't help me a bit.
2- The Narration that goes with image, suggest its been a property of Associated Press and being B&W, possibly 50-60s era.
3- Tried to be smarty pants and did a reverse engineering with PS and best I can come with, after a quick trial are the images in attachment.

4- Best educational guess as to answer the question: No clue!
But then gut feeling goes for either Albert Einstein or Winston Churchill...

Hi sassan

It's Einstein - I put a link in my post.

I thought this may have been hard. Oh well wrong again. Yes Peter is right its Einstein.

It was fun unravelling it. Thanks for setting it up Arthur.
