Wullllllll.....You need one of those bevels to shave, Cheetah!

Cheetah? ;)

Ya, TBH, those scales might look more natural on my blade......:shrug:

:rolleyes:

Hoowee, Mike! That'sa nice job. :rock:

You definitely have the skills to smooth them out! I have a few which attest to that.
Thanks, Bruv! I may send it your way someday. It's sort of an Ugly...

Yeah.....I paid too much, back when things were a bit cheaper. Was what it was.
At least it has appreciated if I have not ruined the value! :)

I still say it is nice to have it shaving!

I went and looked again at the one recently sold.....736 dollars, I think?

Mebbe I should have left mine alone! :roflmao


Oh well!

Exactly why I love to find the old regrinds, Mike.....
Lots less work! :)

BTW, This behemoth is a bit noisy. That Sheffield steel kindof feel/sound.
Was super-easy to hone (After the bevel...

Thanks, Mitch! I would say all the same thing. Swooping and rolling along.
Hone or camera.

HAR! I coulda put more tape on the spine, Mike! :rofl2:

It always amazes me at the worn things bringing so much coin.
A good bevel is key....
...

Yeah, I have a few I think I certainly went too far.
Thankfully, most I just gave-up and honed them up. I was just too lazy to do too much!

I am certain it looked MUCH better as-new, MikeT.

Still, the ravages of time are real. As I get older I seem to realize they cannot be erased without messing things up sometimes. Scars and dings...

Let's see it!

Thanks, MikeT. I suppose I let it sit around so long as I did not know how far I wanted to go with it. Having time, I just let the old thing go where it wanted.
Seeing The recently-sold one...

Thanks!

.....HOLY CRAP! :dropjaw: I just went and saw.....
Looks almost just like mine!
And here I was thinking I paid too much for it to be sitting in a drawer......

Thanks, Rez. It has kept me busy!
In spite of not doing much, it took a long time to do!
Here's the money-shot. One layer of tape.....
Such a nice (rough!) regrind was done.

Thanks, John. One thing about outback Mike and myself...
We both know when enough is enough! ;)

Been on light-duty lately. Dr sez don't pick-up more than 15 pounds...
This does not weigh that much....CLOSE! ;)

So this has languished in a drawer in it's box for 5 years or so.
Reground...
