    Maleham & Yeomans Cutlers Sheffield old Knife

    Wow! Thank you for all your help! It seems that this was a very lucky find. I will look for a good sandpaper set to start working on it. At the beginning I was thinking in re-doing the edge profile because it's very strange, however, it may be a bad idea considering it historic value. Thanks...

    Looking to buy my first hand-forged knife

    Thank you for your response! I think that's a very good option considering the price and what I'm looking, I read really good reviews about it and about the shop.
