Got this O. Barnett a while back for a decent price and intend on replacing the blade. I would love to find a donor blade of the same brand, but if not does anyone know of a production blade from another knife that will work? I assume someone else has been down this road before.

There was a post here somewhere where a knife mechanic welded on a new blade, it looked fabulous. I'll try to find it.

Thanks. I got a contact name in a PM from another member with the name of who has welded them, but have never received a reply from the welder.

Pretty sure Kaleb (muskrat man) can make a blade for it if you don’t mind waiting until he can get to it, and don’t mind that it won’t have the original stamp.

I may try that. The recommended member has welded blades and retained the stamp and original tang which is ideal but, I will do what is needed to get it back usable.

GClaxon fixed this one up for me, it's the middle one in the 3 knife group.

That’s who I’ve messaged. I didn’t want to badger him, but will message again this week if I don’t hear back.
