Another Camillus Jack in bone

I just got this Camillus in a box of knives I purchased. I should have taken a picture of the knife before I rehandled it. Only had bone scale on one side and it was broken. springs rusted and wobble in blades. I tried the nail in the tang trick I learned here on this sight to correct the tang hole. I purchased some bone handles and gave it a try. Maybe not the look I wanted but I did not crack the bone this time.

Here is a picture of the finished knife.

Wow, that wormgroove bone is the perfect choice for that knife. I love seeing an old warrior like that one brought back into service! I hope that it gets some pocket time!
Did that trick restore the snap back like you wanted?
