A little while ago, I came upon a number of Boker USA knives in various stages of disrepair. One of the best in the group was a little sheepfoot Jack with plastic covers.

After Marko did his magic, it is now sporting ebony, and has the look and feel of an old classic:


There was a surprise in the package, too. An Opinel #6, modified to have the most comfortable handle I've ever,,,,,,,well. handled. :D

Thank you, Mark. I appreciate your artistry and your friendship.
 
That's some nice work that Mark did, I'm sure you were pleased with it!
 
Mark does great work! Love the patina and how you can clearly see the transition from where it was closed.
 
Outstanding work - that ebony is beautiful! What a great looking knife and blade combo. It's nice to see such a fine knife brought back to life by someone with so much talent.

Great job Mark! :thumbup:
 
Congrats, Rachel! :thumbup::thumbup:

He did a great job on that knife! The blades look great as is, I am glad you did not polish them up:thumbup:
 
I love to see old knives brought back to life great looking work and I second Ernie patina on th blades look really good.
 
Great knife Rachel. Great job Mark. I agree with the above postees that the patina is great!
 
Thanks, everyone, and thanks to Mark! It is now a little gem of a knife. :)

Here's a picture next to a #15, for scale.
