Thread: Restoring an old Friedrich Herder 30

Great restore on the blade. whatever suits your fancy on the scales. Nice work!

Great job on the polishing! Horn is the way to go, it is going to look great!

Peter please do, and with lots of photos. I would love to see that. There are some knife makers doing much the same thing in Sheffield, with old equipment and learning from the old guys, that did the work as kids.

Check out this recent posting if you haven’t already.

Beautiful work. Would love to hear more on the history of Solingen vs Hamburg

I cannot agree more. I am hoping you get a little time to take us on a working tour of your workshop.

Yep, I would really like to see the workshop...in fact, I am volunteering anyone who is a journeyman cinematographer who lives near Hatzicho to make a short film so we can see some of the moving pieces moving!

Like to see the end result Hope you have used Horn

Like many others I would like to see photos of your set up and, if possible, some more information on wheel sizes, the compounds used and techniques for ensuring that the blades don't get too hot.
