72 rehandle job,needed.

Post by knifetime »

It is a BSA knife so it is a 14** something or another but I would like to get a set of nice bone handles on her. I would like to know if it is possible to keep the BSA shield?

I know that someone on hear does a lot of 72 rehabs but, I for the life of me, cant remember who. I hope one of you all can point me in the right direction. Thanks

Phillip, the 1047 (also called 'BSA047') is the Scout version of the 72.

Here's one that Orvet did for me several years ago, he inlet the shield for me. This may be the one that started the "72 Craze" ::shrug::
