    Default Warranted Cast Steel, Translucent Horn

    This one needed it's own thread. When I got it (I didn't take before pics....because I actually thought it was a lost cause), it was covered in rust and pits....crazy pits. Now, not so much. I think this has had close to 6 or 7 hours just on the greaseless (probably because I would spend an hour on it, and then put it down). It's got another couple hours with the polishing compounds.

    I chose what I think is a nice piece of horn for the lines, bone wedge and brass hardware to keep it classic. Thank heavens the tang stamp was deep.

    If it shaves well, it's going to go in the personal collection.

    Thanks for checking it out.
