    Very nice. I have yet to find a Wade&Butcher blade that wasn't a good shaver. Love that Sheffield Steel!

    it says something like "Garson" or "Larson" guess that's the name of one of the previous owners.....

    I only use the sandpaper to clean the blade and see what's behind all the dirt......after that I only use my dremel with flap wheels,polish wheels, Mass, buff wheels....

    And for the scales I use a Ziploc bag with neastfoot oil for a couple of days....

    I like to keep it simple....

    Simple works
    Great result - authentic look. Love the old horn scales
    The white gleam of swords, not the black ink of books, clears doubts and uncertainties and bleak outlooks.
