Hawkbills gone bad

Post by muskrat man »

this is what happens when a good hawkbill gets some rough use and abuse scratched, rounded tip, grinder marks, and what looks like an electrical burn

Yes, Nice work MM! ::tu:: In it's rough shape that hawkbill looked like it had been sharpened with a file. The electrical burn looks a little small for 110v, I wonder what he cut into? ::shrug:: No matter, a fine looking knife now. ::tu::
