There, I fixed it.
A couple of walnut handles knives I put together. I made a couple of adjustments on them tonight.

Re: There, I fixed it.
I'd say the 2lb. hammer did the trick! 
Pocket, fixed, machete, axe, it's all good!

Re: There, I fixed it.
And now they're ready for the bay!
Stay away from listing as "mint", though.
"Near mint" would be more accurate.
You might be able to get away with "never carried, never sharpened".

Re: There, I fixed it.
They are definitely "bay" ready. They are near mint. Lots of life left in these bad boys, just need a little cleaning. If anyone is interested, I'd take $250 a piece for them.Steve Warden wrote: ↑Tue Jun 16, 2026 1:06 pm And now they're ready for the bay!

Re: There, I fixed it.
I dunno...there's just something not right with the patina....doesn't look natural to me.....
Other than that, these should sell fine! Nice work on them....really....

Re: There, I fixed it.
I recommend a larger hammer and firmer strikes when setting the pins. You don't want those handles coming off.
