Well, last weekend at my parent's I found this languishing on a shelf. It's a Wenger SAK, originally purchased for my brother, and later handed down to me.
It's probably about 17/18 years old, and I remember it returning in my brother's bag from a trip to the World Scout Jamboree in Korea 1991 being covered in suntan lotion after a bottle burst.
What I hadn't remembered was that it must have had something nasty, probably bug juice, spilled on it at the same time - because it appears to have melted in places.
Anyway after looking it over and ivin a quick sharpen I got to thinking about the possibility of replacing the scales and putting it back into service - having only one blade I thought it might be handy on my neck lanyard, on which I usually carry a firesteel and striker and a small compass.
I realised that I haven't seen one with pins all the way through before.
So what I'm wondering now is if I was to rescale it - how would I have to go about getting the scales off with these pins in them?
Anyone have any ideas?
