A very tired Spanish Navaja.
Bought this today in the local street fair. Completely rusted, though not so deep, stuck in the unfolded position. Just because it cost me the equivalent to a half portion of fish and chips (as Tim Simmons woul say ).
So i submitted it to two sessions of soft brushing with very fine steel wool, all permanently soaked with WD-40. And so what did i find, which was completely hidden; a coloured bulfighter in action and the word ESPAŅA, so much better than SPAIN, hence a bit less touristy. I do not dare brush it harder, risking to take out the coloured bulfighter. Should i say the overall etching has a moorish taste ? The ratchet lock with six scoops. . . |
