    Default Atkinson Bros - Sheffield - Hand Forged ~ Blue Paua

    Here's the last restore of this week that is going back to Paul in the UK.

    It's an Atkinson Bros, Sheffield - hand Forged which was send to me for a blade retore/clean up and new scales. Paul wanted to have the new 100% Paua shell/acrylic with blue blacking which I recently acquired.

    Blade took a very nice finish and looks truly stunning in real. I'm satisfied and Paul is extremely happy. That's what counts in the end.

    This one is all ready to go back for it's long trip to the United Kingdom.

    Brand: Atkinson Bros, Sheffield - Hand forged
    Grind: 1/4 Hollow
    Total weight: 2.0 Oz
    Total cutting edge: 2.80 inches
    Scales: 100% Paua shell/acrylic with blue backing
    Wedge: Transparent Acrylic
    Pins/Washers: Brass/Nickel Silver
