tell elroy that mrs sk would not approve of me clamping a vice to the kitchen table!
she is pretty understanding but that may be pushing it. i know my limits......
Have no worries, that's NOT the kitchen table. That's Elroy's home office desk.
Knowing Elroy a bit and seeing his work, I think he'll polish it all. It's just his style --
Ray, you're fully correct. The rough polish is complete. Next step is a pass over the cotton buffer and it'll be ready for the rust treatment. let me tell ya, dressing in those forged waffle patterns on the handle faces sucked. Note the Elroy made, file sleeve made from a .45 ACP brass. Small files call for small handles.
