Please don't grind the blade down to remove the damaged area
When I said I would restore it I was thinking along the line of replacing the missing section of the blade by forge welding in a piece of another old blade. If you don't want to go through all that trouble I would just clean it up and leave it at that.Robert |

Hmmm,
well, the thing is.......... The reason I buy things like this is because it sadens me to see them in such a god awful state. I would feel bad owning it and not trying to restore its funtionality. I think its what 'it' would want. Last edited by Atlantia; 10th March 2010 at 11:54 PM. |

I agree with Berk, if the damage to the blade looks old then let it be.
Who know what history that blade and its dings has to tell. Warren in Arizona |
