    Hi John,

    Nice recovery job. Yes, good to see it back in action and safe from the tip for its second life. Well done.

    Cheers
    Pops

    A nice job - its good to see someone does them properly - mine get a quick sand until there's no rust visible, then trad wax on blade and handle and I take them to the be sharpened at Peacocks. One day I'll have the time to give them the tlc they deserve.

    BTW, you said you'd beaten out a kink - how did you do that?
    Cheers, Richard

    Rhancock,
    I followed the advice of http://norsewoodsmith.com/node/28
    It worked well. I do not have n anvil so used a bit of RSJ and a few firm taps with a 4lb hammer on the high side of the bend. I had always thought that a saw with a kink in it was past hope before I had seen that site. What did we all do before the web?

    Regards
    John
