    Default Holley MFG CO. Lakeville, CT

    Just got this one finished up. Didn't come with scales so I dug up a pair of scales I had in stock. Sanded and polished Scales. Used the Vinegar bath to put a patina on the blade then polished it up some to get the look I wanted. Pinned and Honed. It took a bevel without any trouble. I wasn't sure it was really set. Checked with everything I knew for a set bevel and it was just set! Honed with Naniwa stones up to 12K. The rolling X stroke worked wonders as this blade has a nice smile and it just fell into place. 6/8 at the widest part of the blade and a french point. Will be giving it a test shave in a few minutes but I got good feelings about this one.

    Thanks for looking.
