Nice pick. I like the older 318's a lot better than the newer ones because they are thinner and a lot more pocket friendly.

Try semi-chrome or mothers metal polish____work the spots,with you bare finger/thumb--then work the spots,with more polish using an eraser*** sometimes,this will help____________sometimes to far gone

___good luck

It's a bit difficult to follow behind FRJ's pics. That's a good looking knife. Now to my ugly duckling.

It was only a Buck, and I couldn't read the stamp due to rust. Turns out to be a Winchester , #3925 Whittler. One of the secondary blades is snapped off real short, and of course, the obvious tip missing on the main blade.

So the ? is, do I re-profile the tip and make something of a user? This is my first Winchester. I also picked up a 5 bladed Marshall Hdwe. Zenith that is in need of a whole bunch of TLC. It was a dollar also.

If it were mine, I'd grab the old file and make a sharp pointy blade out of it. Then I'd stick it in my pocket. And, by the way, it's hard for a lot of us to follow Joe.

Great quill knife, the pearl is a 10+.

What T.J. said. Swell centers fit hand and pocket so well.

TJ, Bill, Thanks for the input. I believe that's how I'll spend my Saturday, touching up that clip blade and have a workable knife. I just didn't want to commit sacrilege !

Thank you all for your very nice comments.
Bull, I agree with others. I'd bring that clip right down to the edge. It seems the sacrilege has been commited and now you get to save it. Nice knife.
By the way, I have a Marshall Hardware Zenith elephant toe. Do you know who made these knives for Marshall Hardware?
I wish I knew.

Joe, I did do just that, I did! Finished it up a short while ago.

I don't think I'll get any calls for blade design of any sort, but it looks like a knife blade now. Took a really nice edge, shaved a nice spot on the top of my hand. I don't have a clue as to who made knives for Marshall Hdwe Joe. I have a couple, including the one I picked up yesterday. Not sure yet what to do with it. One blade has a very lazy spring, and another is snaped in half. The 3 remaining blades are in pretty good shape. Handles need replaced. Oh well, I'll end up doing something with it. Good talkin at ya Joe!
