All About Pocket Knives

Some of you may remember my search for some period Case redbone and shield for this muskrat. Thanks to those who tried to help me out!

Anyway, I was finally successful in locating a couple junker 6275 patterns, which I was able to re-purpose the mark and pile sides from. Not horribly easy fitting those scales to the pin-holes and cutouts on an existing frame, but it turned out okay. I purposely left things a little rough, didn't want to take away too much from the original look.

I did a light rust removal on the blades, but was able to maintain the patina.

Nice work! Again.

Good looking and desirable knife Glennbad.

Great work sir.

Fantastic as usual Glenn!

You did such a good job I can't even tell it's been worked on!

Just amazing. That knife has been reborn sexy.

Great job Glenn!

Nice work. I bet it was fun hunting for the parts you needed. I enjoy the hunt as much as repairing.

Looks really great. Just the right touch leaving some patina.

Bob

Very nicely done

Thanks everyone, I'm happy I was able to save a family heirloom for someone. It's not OEM equipment, but it's pretty close.

It would take someone like Steve to tell, I think.
