Of Brass Handled Folders
I nearly forgot Chris, with your experience with metal, what light can you shed on the old process these old cutlers used for "tempering" of the handle of these brass handled knives. I know much of the light guage brass sheet metal I have used over the years is too flimsy to be of any benefit of a knife handle, what is it that they have done to add strength to these handles.
regards
Gavin
