Gassed out Buck Creek new life

Post by Landersknives »

My cousin had this knife. One of his kids gave it to him so he wanted it fixed. I think it turned out pretty nice. It’s green bone. Let me know what you think.

Very nice Ed. That is a 1000% improvement. Maybe I should have you fix a knife that I have that needs repaired.
Nice job.

Great job, Ed!
Vast improvement over what that knife was in its new state, and especially so as it was.
Everything is crisp and clean.

Wow, the before pictures show a mess, the after pictures look great with the green bone.

The shield came on the Buck Creek knives and the C Risner knives. I don’t have any but if I run across an extra or two I will let you know. Thank you for the kind comment KC. :)
