My Springer knife!!!

[Ridgeratt]

I had broken the handles off my Salmon Filet knife. Had a member due a remarkable job of putting a new handle on it..

Thank you!!!

[The scout]

Looks great.  Is that a dexter?

[Ridgeratt]

No marks just an old hunk of "Carbon Steel"  I'm sort of an old skool knife purist!! Showed a person last fall why the Havalon isn't such a hot tool!! He didn't want to try with his "new age knife" what I did with mine and he agreed mine was every bit as sharp!!!

I would like old school knives if I could figure out how to sharpen them 

but I got a work sharp for Christmas so maybe I'll just start collecting them and put a convex edge on everything I own

it looks very much like my dexter. I love old carbon steel!  Beautiful knife ridge rat! Though I still pack my outdoor edge every trip and my and gerber if I need some back bone

That is a nice handle.  I had heard that those Havalon knives aren't bad.  Probably not as good as an electrician's knife but O.K. in a pinch.  Do you prefer an aromatic or aliphatic-based petroleum distillate on that handle? 

[Ridgeratt]

I was told when it was returned the wood is a dense base and has sort of a feeling like an oil impregnated handle.
It does have a nice feel and I am looking forward to using it. Sometime!!!

I'm sure you'll get a chance to use it.

Cool old knife.  Make sure to put it in your will - give it to somebody who will appreciate it.
