The coin thread--post pictures of your traditional knives with a coin

leghog That Peanut looks at home amongst those goddesses, very pretty coin that Mercury, only seen them in pics but they look very nice indeed.

Thanks, Will

Thanks, Will.
 
A long overdue post. I finished my finals and I've returned home for winter break. I included a different kind of coin for these photos:

Working on my photography skills, but that aside here are some shots of my completely refinished #77 NF barlow along with an old dragon silver dollar. Both of which have nice patinas. Shots should be clearer than the last set of pics I posted--still have trouble at making both the scales and bolsters show clearly, but color is better though.

Bolsters given a brushed finish at 600 grit then slightly polished with 1 micron polishing paper. Scales refinished with 600 grit paper and buffed with beeswax. Springs and liners have satin as opposed to mirror finish, but was not photographed. Clip blade sporting a patina and nice mirror razor edge, but the wharncliff was left alone.
