First attempt at restoration complete.
John Heiffer Sheffield wedge.
All sanding and polishing done by hand. This was done with the (I'm pretty certain) ivory scales left on. There are no washers on the pins and I didn't want to do any damage "learning" on them. There is quite a bit of pitting left along the shank as the scales were left on and the makers mark was already very faint. Pitting along spine and near the top of the toe had to be left. Character I suppose. Anyway here is is my first go round.
