Here you have the ripper's knife from a Museum in Docklands posted in the related links box below.

There was never a weapon recovered in the Ripper murders. From what is left of the autopsy notes the weapon was described only as a sharp knife/dagger* about 6 inches in lenght. It could never be distiguished whether the weapon was double-edged or not. They just didn't know enough about determining the type of weapon by the wounds made by it.

*It could not be determined if the Ripper used a knife or a dagger.
