Default 50 year Old Hammer Restoration

Doesn't load at all for me.


No big loss. Potentially crappy hammer, questionable restoration.

Bottom line: I'm happy the OP is happy.

It's not a hammer I would buy. Prolly cuz of all you passionate
WW types that have lulled me into buying outrageously overpriced tools
....and me not being a genuine WW fiend. I mainly read this newsgroup
cuz it has a buncha weirdos that would rather talk woodworking than
any other subject (read politics).

Well, that and the fact my late brother was a master carpenter and I
spent a relatively short time as his apprentice. But, I will admit,
I never got into finish work.

OTOH, I hadda genuine Boy Scout scabbard knife with stacked
leather-ring handle, so I kinda see that attraction.
