German Eye resto

Post by cannonball242000 »

This knife had a broken backspring, a new spring was made, and it polished out nicely. Thanks for looking.

Awsome job, Wes! ::tu::
What type of steel did you make the new spring out of?

We actually did some modification of an old spring from a sabre stockman, and it works great. We had to do quite a bitof cutting and grinding.
