![]() Good repair job. Did you have to weld or braze the tang back onto the blade?

![]() Restoring an antique piece not only takes skill and time, but also takes passion. And I can see you put a lot in your work.
Congratulations for your amazing work! ![]() Such artistic skills like yours are so rare these days. Are you also accepting to do restoration works on commission? I am sure that many of us could need your help. Last edited by mariusgmioc : 28th August 2020 at 08:36 AM. |

![]() Guys:
Questions about commissioning restoration work for specific items are best taken to PM or email. I do agree that Bobi13's restoration skills are remarkable based on the work shown here. Thanks, Ian. |
