    Cool W&B Heavy Wedge in Streaked Horn

    Just heading home, A full custom restore, I will post before pics when I get off work they are on the other camera

    This one needed a full face regrind, new Streaked Horn scales, just a "bit" of polishing, some re-contouring of the heel heck even a bushing for the oversize pivot hole

    A ton of work, but this ole' Gal had the steel available to do pretty much anything I wanted to...

    All new Washers and Pins along with a Bone wedge... Scales were polished out to 12000 grit Micro Mesh...
