Wanstead - aftermath of Bradfield Woods  12-12-15

 

Will Wall was redistributing some rusty tools last weekend. I was very fortunate to acquire this smoothing plane. 

Eric Rogers was also in a philanthropic mood, which enabled me to acquire this Whitby - Solingen hunting knife.

So after stripping it all down, I cleaned all the bits and re-assembled.

Thought I would make the case something a little different. A couple of Sam Browns on the handle flap which was wet moulded.
















The rarely seen back! I am on a Sami quest with the leatherwork – hence the rivets.
