Wow, those are some nice looking W&B's.
Those scales look like they are in really good condition. They still have a really glossy finish to them too. Are the insides solid to, or do they have insect damage there?

Both nice looking blades. You my have troubles keeping the etch in tact on the big girl though. The shave feels the same with or without the etch though! Nice hunting.
It's not what you know, it's who you take fishing!

it looks pretty big, but it is just shy of being a 9/8 Originally Posted by Phrank

no insect damage, just a light crack near the pivot on the backside and a small chip near the toe on the backside as well. overall, should look pretty good when its cleaned up! Originally Posted by JP5

i'm pretty optimistic of the etching on the big one. its reasonably deep, the surface rust makes it look rougher than it actually is. cant wait to fix this one up. Originally Posted by RezDog
