    Will be interesting to see how this one turns out. Will be cool to see if you can save the scales.

    Yeah... Unfortunately I don't think that is a possibility;

    Oh man, you got your work cut out for you. Not sure I would waste my time on a blade in that condition, but I've seen you do amazing things with blades so it's in the right hands. Don't be afraid to walk away from this one. There's other blades that need your help. This sucker needs a blood transfusion, some new organs, and a lot of pain medication....

    You've all got it wrong, that blade has a classic suede finish.

    Not to happy with the scales on this one.
    I had to shorten them and it kinda messed up the "look"

    I did the best I could with sanding.
    My hands need a break for a couple days now I think..........

    I can see the shortened wedge end but the over all finish is excellent.

    Excellent recovery! The pitting on such an old blade is a shame. You did a masterful job of putting her back to use.

    Great work!!
