Thread: flea market goodies

The large w&b just spent the night in my vib polisher. Now im going to start on the new scales. I have seen a few of them with the same blade edge profile? Were they ground that way or are there just to many people hacking them up on a grinder or coarse stone?

Great find. I can’t wait to see them when there all ready to go.

Very nice. What are your plans whit those, restore ??

Excellent score and all in pretty nice shape. Congrats!!!

It's good to know you can still get good deals at the flea markets . Nice find !

Well the boker looks almost new again. the W&B bow still has a little discoloration on the blade but it still took a great edge. My problem is the large W&B, I dont know if I want to Grind Mrs nightingale off or just live with the odd smile of the blade. decisions decisions.

Ok time for an update. The bow razor is finished. the new scales were made totally by hand. Polish was done by hand. there is some pitting on the back side of the blade but I didnt want to get to carried away with hand sanding. I started at noon today. Took a two hour beer break. Errr thats combined for all the times I had to run up to the bathroom. Unfortunately all my power tools are in storage right now Plus its probably not a good idea to use power tools when enjoying the beers this much

nice scales
