    Default Le Grelot custom restore

    I had this one lying in my drawer for a very long time, finally got around to doing it.
    It is a Le Grelot P'Hospital with very minimal honewear, destined to my collection, I am a big fan of Le Grelot and TI in general.
    The blade had some deeper pitting closer to the spine that could not be removed because of the grind.
    Scales Ghost Jade G10, red acrylic wedge, nickel silver pins and SS washers.

    Nice clean work there. I've always been a fan of the Jade Ghost. Well done sir.

    Excellent work with the restoration. I don't think the pitting detracts at all and those Jade Ghost scales are incredible. I'm not certain I've ever seen them before.
