sharptonn Thanks!
Yes, there are lots of delicious photos
After a while I came across many such sets. I probably rebuilt the lock in the original handle only once. It required a lot of perseverance. Lots and lots of patience. And all handmade.
Others I did just replace the shank.

I like these pictures for an example. They are all slightly different. I think that you would have to take the combination of the biggest notch and the shortest tang on them and then make them all match. Then make a handle to match those.
A fun project especially if you don't count your labor as anything!

Thanked: 227Couldn't get to sleep. So broke out the boys blade and had at it up to 1500 grit. Although I was light handed as I don't want to ruin the etching.
I'm happy with how it is coming on.
Waiting for scale bits to arrive.

I think you'll have plenty of time to, perfect it. And make sure its shaving, on occasions. Don't want him starting with a bad edge. All those years of precise stropping.....a priceless edge!!...so smooth!!.... so effortlessly, it desires to shave...[emoji18]
Believe me...they do exist.Mike
