Wenger SI Blade

[jerseydevil]

Hello All!
First post to this forum, though I've been looking around here for a while. I have an '01 Wenger SI that has a pretty beat up blade.  It's still perfectly functional, the damage is purely cosmetic.  Still, I would like to know if anyone has any suggestions as to repairing/replacing the blade. Is it even worth it?  It's not my EDC knife, I carry a Super Tinker every day, with a Farmer on order.  I just think that the issue knife is neat (I would love to find one whose date matches my Model 1911 Schmidt-Rubin!). Thanks for any suggestions!

Welcome to the forum

SI's do make fantastic users, so I'd be inclined to make a bit of a project of it, and restore it myself

Having said that, if it's too far gone you could send it in to Wenger to be renovated

I'd give some serious consideration to just polishing it up and giving it a quick trip over a sharpening stone and put it back in service.  Unless there's some relevance to the date (the number stamped into the back of the blade) then it doesn't really make any financial sense to do much else with them.  They are great knives that take a serious pounding and can be found at super inexpensive prices.
