    Just a question to all,
    how can you tell if a blade has been reground especially old blades
    I have an old W&B 8/8 thats probably half hollow that looks like a factory grind to me

    fair enough bad grinding that doesn't look factory can be spotted but if it is all even & matches the tang grind lines,
    how would you tell if this is original or reground 100 years ago ???
