Parker folding hunter

Post by stayinsharp »

This is the Parker I posted yesterday that my mom and I found in some more of my recently passed stepfather's hoard. This is a Parker Damascus with nickel silver bolsters and a beautiful reddish purple laminate. The sun finally arose in the sky cleared up so I set up my little poor man's polishing outfit and got after this tarnished and dirty Parker.
It cleaned up nicely and all I've got left to do is sharpen it and I did find a sheath to fit it out of a entire box of sheaths that we found also. Now this night was found in a can of other knives as well as some old batteries so it does have some damage to the nickel silver from the old batteries but that's the way it is
