Elinox Camper that was among a lot of SAKs I got from eBay.

Was a bit of a mess, totally gummed up with pocket cooties and battle-scarred scales.

 :think: I really need to remember to take "Before" pictures.

Cleaned, polished and a nice little brass shield made up and now I'd be proud to put it in my pocket  for the day and not embarrassed to get it out in front of people..... :-[ errr, you know what I mean

I'd love to see a thread (with photos) on the methods you used to bring back this, or another, knife.

Nice. Has anybody tried to put his own emblem (such as his Avatar) on one of his SAKs?
