    Not bad, not bad at all. Now get it honed so you can come back with more bragging rights.

    Thanks. yeah before honing im gonna do a little clean up work on it. thinking of repainting the lettering on the scales (looks like they were green at one time, and probably gonna put new washers and pins in it. The blades a little loose and giving it a little tap with a hammer didn"t work so im thinking the washers are bad. But after that it should be good to go.

    Too much info to post, but I would suggest taking a look at what Glen has posted in the wiki and whatever you do take it easy and do it just as he says.

    To repaint the lettering:
    You will need a 000 brush and enamel hobby paint.(available from any hobby store)
    -Carefully re-paint the lettering.
    - Don't worry about overspill.
    - Once the paint has dried hit it with some 1500 or 2000 grit sandpaper to clean the tang.

    You'll want at least three coats - always remember with paint that multiple thin coats are always better than
