    Default Third rebuild.

    I recently got myself a H.Boker No.2121. The scales were a little bashed but not too bad, anyway I did not like them and the pivot pin was bent. I made new scales with Kirinite and the wedge from nickle silver. I used hand tools for everything and it took a rather long time to make the wedge from a 3mm thick bar of nickle silver. Anyway, here's some pictures. Hope you enjoy.

    I've never heard of a Boker 2121 but it looks a lot like the 1056, which is one of my favorites.

    Different original scales and the 1056 does not have a MOP scaled tang with a difference in the grind.
