Thanked: 13Glad to hear that they are good because I have one wating for me to restore it after the one I'm currently working on. I'm now on 400 grit from 240 grit so should be able to post some pictures of it in the next month or so.

Thanked: 0Just picked up a real nice 6/8 Crown & Sword on EbayUK for £12. Needs a bit of work but should scrub up a treat.

I dremelled mine around the etching and used 1200 grit forllowed by Carr and May steel polish and it doesn't look too bad at all shiny shiny.
My next decision is to try hone it myself or have it done properly. So far the consensus seems to be that they are too nice for a muppet like me to trash so...Last edited by Bradford Si; 03-01-2007 at 07:46 AM. Reason: it's early...what can you do?
