    Default Greaves & Son Sheaf Works - Restored in Honey Horn

    This one heads home to our very own Bandman / James...

    A Sheaf Works 6/8 near wedge Greaves and Son... We went with almost the same scales as it came with which were Honey Horn I used a Bone wedge and triple stacked washers on Nickel Silver pins...
    The horn was polished out by hand using Micromesh sandpaper to 12,000 grit...

    The steel needed some serious work to pull the pits out but I managed to gets just about everyone of them and took the finish to a near mirror...

    Awesome job G & those pivots always look ... just right.
