Thread: Restore in Red

Here is another restore for a forum member. This is a no-name, presumed Sheffield steel which was apparently used in the medical field, per the original scales having a medical insignia on them.

Scales are red acrylic with a black and red spacer, brass pins and washers. For the wedge, I actually just used some vulcanized fiber, (aka: fish paper, liner material) and superglued a couple of differently colored pieces together. Let it set for a few days, then sanded it to shape. Worked very well.


Blade MFG: Unknown
Blade Grind: Full Hollow
Scales: Red Acrylic
Wedge: Black & Red
Pins: Brass
Washers: Brass

I really like the red on this one.

Thats very very cool
what a clean looking build
good work there sir

Red scales are always my favorites... blood red.
You know those scales look manufactured... maybe because the bevels seem so precise.
Interesting wedge idea, I should try it.

Thanks for posting
