The William Haskell House

You have to be special to get a Palmetto Blades Chef Knife and my buddy Chris Drouin certainly fits that role. If you’ve been to a Christmas or a Pops Day Grind In, then you know he feeds us like no other!!
So his has two different Fenway Park renovation woods!! Thank you Chris for being such a huge part of the Palmetto Blades Family!

Did you know that you can purchase a knife made from wood from The William Haskell House. Contact Palmetto Blades for more information. They truly have history you can hold!

Jenn added something special to the sheath to help us celebrate our 250th Anniversary of Independence!!

Another Haskell Home! Thanks for preserving the home so nicely.

We restored the earliest known photograph of Haskell House, from the 1934 WPA files, to see the original Essex Green shutters, the immense elm trees in front and side, the old horse barn in the background, a higher elevation on the property in front and (of course) the farm dog. As we continue our restoration work, we may forego the shutters. What do you think? The elms were just replanted last fall.
