Basic knife restoration/cleaning/polishing - Before & after

[TripleF]

I bought this CAMCO knife on eBay a while back snd set out to cleani it up. I have no power tools, just elbow grease.

I used:
Amway Metal Cleaner
Super Knife Eraser
1500 grit sandpaper
Flitz Metal Polish
Chamois
Quick Release Oil
Elbow grease maximus!

Would someone be kind enough to tell me what the handles are?

Scott,
It is hard to tell 100% in a pic, but I think it looks like nice waterfall celluloid.
Pretty nice example too I would say.
When you move it in the light does it shimmer and appear to be moving sort of like water?

[TripleF]

It kinda does Dale....

I like this cheapy. Something makes me want to keep it......but it's listed on eBay at the moment..

I'll go with cracked ice, waterfall was normally used on higher end knives
