Welcome Home...THANK YOU FOR BEING A PART OF OUR COMMUNITY

An old Rapala fillet knife that I pretty much completely re-did.

I found it literally in pieces, with a bent blade, too small of a handle, and a tang cap that was destroyed.

The blade was straightened, a new handle made, and everything sanded WAY more than anything original.

Quite pleased with the end result.

More details of the build/reconstruction can be found in the 'Knife repair, Modification, Restoration & Improvement" group discussion.

That handle is just beautiful! Nice save on that one!

Outstanding! Most folks would pitch it if found in the condition you did, but then you're not most folks. You have the tools, you have the talent!
