My father sent me a Kabar (I traded him for a new one) Hunter that he has owned since the 1960's. He used the hell out of - didn't understand the hollow grind and so he took a file to it!
After much use as a pry-bar, hammer, and god knows what else - he sent it to me.
I cleaned it up, polished off some of the abuse, while keeping the history, and put a SWEET convex edge on it. It not wipes away hair and looks great.

I also cleaned the sheath - and it looks sweet. I may have a little leather work done to her by someone qualified.
I am really proud how this turned out.
