It really does have a hell of a lot of character, but if it's perfectly functional, you might as well carry it.

Now, you have to make up a story about how it got that way for when someone asks.
 
Sharpen it to get the nicks out of the edges and slip it in your pocket :thumbup:
 
I say carry it. Its rough as 20 miles of bad road, no doubt about it, but its still got blades, can still cut, so use the heck out of it.

I think its very cool to resurrect a knife so far gone to using status again.:thumbup:
 
With all the neglect that knife has seen, it deserves to be carried and used...
 
It's very cool if you carry and use it. Not too cool as a collection piece, sorry.
 
My vote is for "cool" too. :thumbup: I'd just sharpen it more and maybe use a pin to scrape out any active rust from the nail nicks. It could be a very good user! :)
 
She is very :cool:!!

If'n it was me though, Id take a series of whet sand paper stacks and some mineral oil and starting at around 200-300 grit gently and gradually work my way up to 2000-3000 grit by hand,(no machines) one blade at a time while you are watching TV or the like.. Take your sweeeeet time and do it right. Careful not to sand to deep.


Best,

Anthony
