I realise this is one restoration that didn't recover the knife's intended use but l think it's a thing of beauty as it is now. It is so interesting to be able to still see the damage and change that has happened to the knife. It reflects it's history in the way that a complete restoration actually loses in becoming 'like new' again.Love watching these. I just did an old timer pocket knife for a buddy. His dads knife that was laying in the bottom of a Jon boat for over a decade. Seeing the look on their face is always priceless.
