Old knife repair?
Posted: Mon Jun 13, 2005 1:35 am
Does anyone know if it's possible to have old folding knifes reconditioned, specifically with regard to tightening up the blades?
I've now acquired several Case Sharks Tooth and Mako Shark hunting knifes, all with stag handles, and a few of them have slightly wobbly blades, and that kind of ruins them for me. Is that something I just have to learn to live with, or could a good cutler fix this for me? I've talked to a couple cutlers who seemed willing to try, but also seemed a little leery about chances of success.
Any guidence would be most appreciated.
