Thanked: 4206
Working on a sweet Slim adjustable that I was given on the weekend by a gracious brother in blades.
Looking forward to what it's going to shave like once I clean it up a wee.

Those Mappins are Fine! I saw your honing photos yesterday but the tape obscured the frame. The silver scales look good, too.
In related news I touched up my TI frameback on a Thuri last night and will shave with it tomorrow.sharptonn likes this.

So the dented pivot on one side was bugging me. I found a screw which would thread-in the outer hole and used it to push the scale out, applying pressure from the inside. Worked well!
So I had to size another collar for that side. Changed my mind about the small domes as they were a tad too big.
Mated a few of Ajkenne's silver collars up over the inners from Babur.
Works much nicer and gives a 'double stack' effect.
Anytime you can elevate the peening by a tad, means you will not need to strike sensitive materials. Unless you are going collarless, of course!
Decided not to mess with the blade, sanding and such. some CroOx and crocus/WD40, a bit of buffer, and some Maas by hand will do. After the scales lightly tarnish, it should all meld-in.

Thanks! Ajkenne's collars are really nice to work with!
I finally just now got it all pinned-up. Don't see any damage to my bevel from all the work, so I will start on the Naniwa 1k tonight.
