Thanks for the comments and advice guys, much appreciated. I will take the restoration slowly, rush often risks mistakes: festina lente

First thing is to make up some cutler's resin (many recipes out there) and practice removing and refitting handles on a few less important items. I am somewhat trepidatious about heating blades to remove handles, but I know it is the only way to do it.

Thanks again, I will post images of the finished work when it's done.

ps. I think you may be right Robert: my eyes are peeled for more gunongs, I can understand the addiction. :-)
