The shiny one is a ‘Girl Guides’ knife, brass scales
The pruning knife was made in Sheffield, has plastic scales and is roughly put together... might be a one day project

As Gerhard is making a hammer/axe I thought I should get a handle on this one  :D

Ash hammer handle





Missed some stages  :-[
Needs some leather, made from an old belt and work boots  ;)



That glued up OK



The front



The Back (this is after waxing)



Added copper



Love it when a plan comes together  :D



I'm taking notes!  :salute:

I used some 400 grit sandpaper to remove the surface rust and ran a file across the edge a couple I times just to clean it up. I've given a the handle a few coats of Danish oil which brought out the grain nicely.

Ready for a few more years service.

A really good day at the flea market today, spent a little bit more on the day than I set out to but there was an abundance of quality stuff today where it's been dry in the past. I was not able to take everything home today either, I left behind some pretty quality camp knives that typically I would have rescued.

Picked up a nice Stanley 130A Yankee driver to replace my faulty 130B. It was £2! Works brilliantly. The painted wooden handle was a bit rough so I sanded and waxed it.

I ordered a hex adaptor from Axminster tools so it will accept any 1/4" bits.
