    Hello Ben, Thanks for the photos and the name of the maker. I have not been able to find the initials on one I got in a junk shop "take the lot!" deal. The blade had been ground down to a full hollow and not in bad shape except for an end crack that will be a barber's' notch.

    Been waiting for this one to show up on the forums. I gotta say Ben you do some crazy good work. I have yet to talk to the gentlemen you did the restore for, but I know he is surly impressed. Glad those before photos got some use.
