Great thread Gentlemen .

Nice one Gene.....I love 'relic' pieces.....

Have you decided to what extent, you are going to clean this ? I would certainly consider (if it was mine) making a wooden handle (in 2 halves) and fixing with a wire wrap. No adhesive....so that the handle is not permanently fixed and could be removed without damage to the tang.

All the best

Oh by the way, hows your 'other' aquisition doing.....( the two legged, two armed type .... I mean )
