First post here. I have a 110 I bought in the late 60's. Over the years the wood scales have gotten very dark and now show hardly any color or grain. How would I go about cleaning them? Thanks!
 
Welcome to the forums.
Can you show pictures or give a more detailed descripition of your knife
Blade stamping,number of rivits in the handle.
Rear bolster configuration(back brass part of the knife)
Sometimes cleaning is not good,if not done properly,you might have a nice collectable in your possession and could destroy the value of it.
 
I use murphys oil soap on mine,keeps them looking new,and doesn't allow the older wood to dry out afterwards.All of my old knives (any brand)get the same cleaning when needed,and all look great.
