Antique 19th Century French veterinary Fleam Knife
This rare medical instrument was crafted in the late 1800s by the French maker Veritable Choton. Fleam knives were once widely used by veterinarians for bloodletting cattle, a now obsolete practice once believed to “relieve stress on the heart” and cure various ailments.
Today, it serves as a fascinating relic of veterinary and medical history, offering a tangible glimpse into how healthcare practices once differed. It would make a remarkable addition to any medical collection, museum display, or cabinet of curiosities.
Despite being well over a century old, this fleam remains in good condition. It shows light wear consistent with age, and has developed a subtle oxidized patina over time, further enhancing its character and authenticity.
