My dad has an old folding Kabar knife that belonged to his grandfather. It's in pretty bad shape. The old pearl handles crumbled and fell off. The knife has a certain sentimental value as grandpas knives tend to have. I'm looking for someone who's willing to take this knife down, polish, and restore it to as good as it can be. Dad said it had pearl handles then, but said he'd like to put a pretty burl wood or something like that on it. He didn't know where to begin on a project like this so I thought I'd help him out. If at all possible I'd like to give it to him for Christmas, but if that's not an option...it can wait. If anyone can help please shoot me a pm with a price for your service. Thanks!

Knife makers: need help

Hope you find someone to do it. I've got one that's the same way, and all the knife makers I've talked to say that it's really difficult to do without damaging the knife because they have to knock the rivets back out and completely take it apart and then fit it back together. Those old Kabars are cool knives.
