Hello, not really sure if this is the right place and sorry if it isn't.

Recently picked up an old, unmarked rooster knife that had some serious degassing. Under all the discoloration and grime I found a few pretty nasty cracks. Wondering if y'all had any suggestions on being able to repair these.

Thanks!

You may be able to hard-solder the cracks, but I would replace the material.
Have you examined the backsprings?
 
Thanks for the feedback. I think I'm going to take it apart and make some new liners. Never tried bolsters before so might be a good chance to learn.
