Posted this one in the General forum but figured it should be over here.Nice folding hunter with stag scales.Some grind damage to the master blade which is currently being smoothed out.Secondary blade has a small nick but pretty ful;going to leave it alone.Mark side scale slightly warped at the rear(pin pulled away).Will soak it in mineral oil to soften it up and then re-pin it.Beautiful stag scales with no cracks.Price:$20.

Ray that has some killer stag on it.

Do you think you'll be able to get that loose slab back down to the liner ?

Pretty much done Phil;drilled the hole out slightly and threaded in a 2-56 screw until it broke.Pulled it down nicely although not perfect.Good enough for me.Polishing is coming out great;will post pics tomorrow.
