wounded Buck •110•

Hi gang,
Thought I'd share are a few picts of a 110 that I bought at a swap for 5 dollars.
I am a little worried that I won't be able to have the locking spring and spacer on the back replaced, but I will try. If they can, I am going to also ask to have the blade re-contoured and the brass & wood polished. Not sure why someone would've removed the parts on the back, but not surprised.
If I am able to spa this guy, I will upload those completed picts when I get it back.
Best, Mike

Thats an early 2 dot . Its really not all that bad and could be restored to 95% of its original condition . DM

Thanks David,
I'm hoping they will be able to clean up the blade to a nice tip and brush finish like new, I know that it will lose some blade belly, but I hope to keep the orig blade with it's marks.

Contact Leroy at Triple R and let him know whats going on. He may have the parts (including a blade) to do a restore.

Yes, be sure and tell them to 'not take the belly off' try to leave it full . I'm sure he has the spring and spring holder . If you have 5$ in it and put 40$ more in it plus 5$ more shipping, its worth that . Did you get the leather sheath with it ? DM

Thanks for the recommendation guys,
I will contact Leroy and ask his guidance.
No sheath came with this one, so I might find an open top sheath for this one. I like the ones that are natural tan or brown with basket weave or fishtail impression on them and will seek something like that out after the re-furbish.
Best, Mike
