What a fantastic frameback!!! I have a W. Greaves & Sons 6/8 brass framedback very similar in shape to yours. Seeing what a remarkable job you've done really makes me want to restore mine ASAP. There's just somthing about those old "Framebacks".

No magic! stupid amounts of patience! Just gotta sit in front of the TV and sand untill your hand feels like its gonna fall off. Then sand more. Haha!

Its funny you say that! I love the framebacks and railbacks, There is somthing about them. It's alot of work to polish the blades but the results are good. Originally Posted by bestsilversteel
