    What to do?

    It's an 8/8" Celebrated Hollow Ground FBU. The spine is 1/3" wide (well .30 now with hone wear but close enough). From heel to toe at the longest point 3 1/8". The scales are 7/8" at their widest. The pivot is wobbly and the scales are chipped along the edges. The patina is, for the most part, nice and even.

    What would you do? Tighten the pin and hone or a full restore? Something in between?

    Better look at the worst of the scales:
