Got a bit more done on the Mountain Man Folder. The backspring and blade are now fitted with perfect rise and fall. There is some trash in the joint in the photo. One more pass on the 400 grit belt, then clean it out and the line will almost disappear. Finishing up the blade and doing scrimshaw next. Notice how I store projects in a multi-compartment box. Nothing gets lost this way. On minis and folders it is super important. HF and other places sell these boxes in many sizes for a buck apiece. They will hold all the parts for a drop point hunter down to a mini.
I also rebuilt a wakizashi that I made many years ago for a collector. It had an accident when someone was looking it ... accidentally dropped it ... and stepped on it ... breaking the tsuka. The owner was heartbroken. I found out and offered to rebuild it at no cost or shipping. Good as new now. Shipping out tomorrow.
