I was in a rush today heading to the Friday Knife Gang lunch and realized I'd gotten out without a knife (Yes, I was wearing pants). I knew I'd be passing a pawn shop so I dropped in just on the off chance they'd have something interesting sharp and pointy. This was amongst the pieces in the case and I thought it showed potential.

Yes, sometimes the inconceivable turns out to be just the nearly impossible. ;)

If it helps at all, there were 3 fixed blade knives, 4 folders and 3 multipliers (and my versuri/billhook) in the car with me. :scrutiny:
 
So after a soak overnight in mineral oil and the inside being blasted out with PB Blaster, golly what a lot of crud was in there, the blades got a good scrub with a brass brush which got them much cleaner, but revealed spotty patina. I may need to patina the blades if I can't clean the steel up.
