Wanted: Schrade peachseed bone (or donor knife)

[coffeecup]

I need a piece of old peachseed bone, about 1 1/2" long, and at least 1/4" wide, to repair a knife. Might be able to work around a pin hole.

The knife it is going on is an older Schrade Walden. The bone is very worn; current finish and color on the replacement aren't real big concerns as I will have to finish it down and color to match. A donor knife I could strip for a piece would work too.

Let me know what you've got, and what you want for it.

Thanks,
Jim

Are you willing to trade anything? I'm looking for some usa boker shields and a 881y ulster shield. Pm if your interested.

[coffeecup]

I can trade, but don't have any Boker or Ulster shields, or parts knives.

Finally got an SD card for the camera (then found the old one, of course). Anyhow, here's a pic of the bone I'm trying to match. For scale, the knife is a 4" stockman.

Thanks!
Jim

Got the bone I need, now to find time to do the work. . . . . Thanks!

Jim, I would love to see your completed repair.

Oh man, so would I! I just got to find the time to do the work. . . . I cheated on the Schrade 294 I got from MM a while back--while I'm waiting to figure what to have it re-handled with, I filled in the missing bone with JB-Weld. Don't want to do that on the stockman.
