USA barlow

Post by BIGHEAD »

Had a guy that had his grandfathers barlow that had a broken main asked if I could replace it and he wanted a worn blade to mimic what original would be. So I found a donor and came up with this. Soryy I never think to take before shots :oops:

That is some beautiful bone! I am glad that you could restore it for him. That's a great way to honor his grandfather.

Great knife restoration. Also good idea from him to replace it with a used blade.

Thanks to all. The customer was happy and that is what matters he is going to give it to his Grandson for Christmas. That will be the 4th generation to own it ::ds::
