Belknap Hardware St Louis, MO
John Primble India Steel Works
Germany. ( figure that one out LOL)
5/8

Honed it up today. Shaved with it. Edge is a bit harsh right off the stone even after 30X linen and 50X leather. Hopefully it'll settle in. Grind looks to be between a half and quarter hollow. Shaved great with cold water.

THANKS!!!

Hey Greg, I scored a set of original FR scales the other day. They're the faux tortoise ones with the pewter shield. Rehydrating then in mineral oil now.

Been working Saturdays for so long I've forgotten what a weekend is supposed to feel like. MAYBE, I can her pinned up and ready to show off before Xmas. :)
