Knife Income today

few restaurant knives and few super market one and some yard gear

all of the beater knives on 1 x 42......80......220.....600......some leather

yard stuff after i got it cleaned on 220......some scotchbrite..........i hate nasty yard stuff so i clean it all before sharpening.

i have fooled around with many different methods........sisal wheel wth 400grit or emory was my choice.....tried wire wires.....not bad, then red nylon wheel......nice too, but of late i have found Krud Kutter......my knife buddy in tx turned me onto it..... will just about clean most.....with stiff pad or steel wool........for the tuff ones like today i used angle grinder with scothbrite pad........the best

Springfield Amory - flaming bombshell - Hospital Corps knife

That is a very cool old knife! 

It looks to be in good condition. I wouldn't try to make it look new, but bluing does come off immediately with vinegar.

You come across the most interesting toys.

Bet you have a metal detector and do "beach patrols" after storms and etc?

Max, it's great to have you here! 

I can't believe it's been 5 years since you started down this road, but I remember when...

Thank you for sharing your experience!

That is a well documented, highly collectable knife. Here's a Link to a good reference.

Found one on ebay for $440, but I suspect there are versions that have far more value.
