perry coleman replied to Frank Plant's discussion SHOULD I POLISH BLADES OF OLD KNIVES?"Yep, it's the truth too. I'm a total sceptic but it does work, sometimes even brings total snap back
to the blades."
"It was recommended by another member. Honestly never heard of it or used it but they have an interesting site."
perry coleman replied to Frank Plant's discussion SHOULD I POLISH BLADES OF OLD KNIVES?"Hey Steve, I haven't. I use Birchwood Casey gun scrubber on all my older knives then I blow them out with compressed air.
Then I oil them down with Quick Release oil."
"Any body ever hear of http://www.hoppes.com/index.htm for cleaning and polishing!"
"I just love those old counter top displays. That is a great look!"
perry coleman replied to Frank Plant's discussion SHOULD I POLISH BLADES OF OLD KNIVES?"Thanks Jan, it has been alot of fun to collect these. I bet I've spent several hours polishing, cleaning and oiling these older cells. Most of these have really good snap still too!"

perry coleman replied to Frank Plant's discussion SHOULD I POLISH BLADES OF OLD KNIVES?"I think there's a lot to be said for an old 1095 carbon steel blade havin a little patina to it.

Hope you saved a pic. Wasn't to impressed with the ivory, that I've seen from CASE. Think that it would take a custom handle job to make them match well.
(The Mrs picked me up a half dozen Chilean peaches just yesterday.) carvin a arrow through the heart whimsey for her, for valentines day. (I'm cheep, but she likes the hand-carved stuff, so it works out in the long run.)
Take care, buddy.

- Yep, CASE done locked them up in solitary for a spell. Been under the weather for a spell, you post any pics of the Mammoth Ivory Seahorse?
It IS peach season in Chile' . Saw some in Wally World for 89 cents a pound, today. Need to wait a few weeks though, to get the ones from mid to late season crop.

Now that's explain where those beautiful handles came from! you did great job!
I'm just starting on my Slipjoint collection, haven't found my fav yet, but any style of traditional Slipjoints always got in to me. not too many choices tough, since it's very hard to find a store in Indonesia that sell such a knives (it's all tactical here...sigh), so i have to bought them on the net, but am not complaining..just taking it easy as it goes, enjoying every knife hunting i do....:).
God Bless
