Vibrating brass tumbler for polishing blades
I decided to try my Lyman vibrating brass tumbler for polishing a blade as I had heard others talk about it and I used to be pretty heavy into firearm reloading.
The results were very nice. I had some deep pitting that I had to hand sand but the Lyman tumbler did a very good job with little work on my part.
This is a Shumate President that I bought several months back.

Lemur, it was Corn cob media with some Lyman liquid Turbo media added. I also put some Iosso Quick Brite Case Polish in the media as well and tumbled it for quite a few hours.
I have a Shumate Tungsteel blade in it that I just put in less than an hour ago. Anxious to see if it turns out as well.My son is a Drill Instructor in the United States Marine Corps at Parris Island, SC
