    Default Old cracked and busted 1 1/8" WB

    Grabbed this beater of a blade of the bay. It is in rough shape but with a touch of luck should work out ok. Has a gnarly chip and a bit of a crack just in from the shoulder. Going to see what I can do to bring her back into service.Name: IMAG2081.jpg Views: 467 Size: 38.1 KBName: IMAG2082.jpg Views: 442 Size: 44.8 KBName: IMAG2085.jpg Views: 428 Size: 36.7 KB

    Curious to see how you do! I have one I bought for the scales. It was reground too thin at the heel and cracked as well.

    I'd re-contour the heel so it keeps it's width but loses a tiny bit of length, unless that's a crack there as well.

    I agree completely. No way to get her running again with the large crack over the chip however. At least this way she will shave again.
