Schatt&Morgan Restoration & Remod

This large, teardrop Schatt & Morgan jack was also part of a collection that I am working my way through, and it was in horrible shape when I started tinkering with it. Honestly, I've never seen so much dirt and grunge come out when disassembling a knife. The entire primary blade tang stamp was almost completely worn off (I can just make out the "T" for Titusville if I tilt the blade just right), and of course you can see the Schatt & Morgan tang stamp on the broken secondary blade. I searched for a replacement secondary blade in my parts stash, but none of them had tangs which matched well enough. But, in going through my punch blade collection I ran into one that fit perfectly. I decided to use natural, undyed canvas micarta. I think this knife now is a model known as a "harness jack". :D

That is a great looking "harness jack". Wish it was in my pocket.
