Wow, Friday has turned out to be somewhat of a nightmare. It didn't look too bad until I got it out of the scales. The blade itself wasn't too bad, but the tang was rusted pretty badly and blackened/stained something terrible. I've been working on it on and off all day and it is going to take at least twice as long as the first 4 have.

Again I was able to grab some before pics. There is plenty of grinder marks still in the blade, unlike some of the others I have that are a lot smoother.

Bit off a lot on this one!! I'll post up some more pics when I get her ready.
