Hi all I recall polishing the blade on this little CK bowie knife then using it to scoff my brekkie at work as the plastic knife that came with the full English snapped!! When I got it out to wash it at home it had stained it, I thought i'd have another go at some better definition (Didn't...

WOWSER!!! :yikes: Stunning work Hamish :notworthy:notworthy:notworthy Keep up the fab work mate :cool::cool: John :) PS, The strap on the watch usually goes on the other way round, Buckle at the top :o

No that will be chemically blued or blacked, Some people when hunting try to make the gun as unobvious as possible, maybe wrapping cammo tape round it or painting it in cammo or just painting a matt colour so there will be no reflections form sunlight to give their position away... John..

Yes, I think someone spoilt his sale :( John..

This is the mk1 HW80 Ground and polished Reblued.. And rebuilt.. It shoots very nicely now but the first shot out sounded like a shotgun and smoked more than my old mk4 Cortina, it registered 909fps which with the 11.9 grain Hobbies equated to 21ft lbs :nono::yikes: I stripped...

I've just restored a Weihrauch HW80 mk1 from being a rust bucket to a nicely finished rifle! This is my nect project, A very rusty Langenham T Bar Gem smoothbore gun!! I have some nice bits of walnut to make a stock.. Had to make a leather breech seal for it! The action was so siezed...

I believe those are the B2 rifles which are the lowest quality- This is an XS19 which is a copy of the Gamo 220/440, The XS rifles are CNC made and not the 'draw filed and rivetted' type, £65 is a good price for one of these ;) If you scroll down this page (third gun down) you'll find they're...

Ach!! Same here, too far away :( What about paying postage if the stuff isn't too bulky?? very generous gesture though Tengu :cool::cool: John :)

Hi Macaroon It's a false assay mark!! It just says WR then two stars then S.. I've given the sheath knives a bit of a clean and polish now and they look better now but the bottom one of the two had some sort of a spacer to fill a gap between where the ricasso should be and the guard which i've...

Hi all I bought a cell for the watch, it was a pretty rarely used 616 cell rather than the 'common as muck' 626!! I polished the case and bracelet with my Dremel and it came up a treat!! I'm going to have top remove the movement to clean the dial and inside of the crystal as there's...

Nope, that one's gone now, just the one at the footy ground now ;) John :)

Hi all Went around three bootsales this morning and only got anything at the last one!! (Chesterfield) I scored these four knives very cheaply, going to have to start making some sheathes for them soon!! Top one has Water Buffalo horn, the chap said it was a Commando knife blade that was...
