My camera and photos are most likely the real problem, Richard.

There's nothing about that edge I can't fix.

A little steel wool and my Norton would bring it right back, but the scales are toast.

I could shave with it today if I honed it, but cutting my fingers off during the sanding would be a real drag.

I'm going to be doing this restore totaly by hand. I assure you, there will be no power tools used in the process. I don't have any.
