Imperial Bone Repair

Post by Tony_Wood »

I just received this old Imperial in a box of knives I purchased from TripleF. (He always sends more than what you purchase...thanks Scott.)

I had a knife with similar bone, not exact, but close enough for this government contract. Both had a good scale and a broken scale. Now one has two good scales and the other has two broken scales. ::shrug::

I still need to peen the backspring rocker pin a bit, but will have to build something to help hold the knife.
