      @@qualicumjack3906 Probably lost all of its value considering how much material was removed. If only the rust was removed, it could've been a museum piece. Now it just looks like some cheap trinket that was cast in sand. The grips didn't even fit properly, and the varnish had bubbles and debris, and wasn't sanded. A nice stain and some linseed oil would've been much nicer

      @@qualicumjack3906 Truly a godsend. You can even use it to seal/treat wooden cookware (cutting boards/spatulas etc...) as long as it's either raw linseed oil, or actual boiled linseed oil (most storebought BLO contain drying agents that make them inedible), and metal, as it can help prevent rust propagation (although it's not as good as hot/cold bluing, or japanning). I recently scraped the varnish off of a small camp axe's handle and refinished it with BLO. Let me tell you; that thing is the softest, most comfortable, splinter free handle I have ever seen. Plus, it doesn't crack and peel like varnish, you don't have to wash any brushes or worry as much about fumes, and with repeated applications and sanding, can have just as nice of a gloss or matte finish as a varnish.

    Your restoration was a compliment to time, effort, skill, and finally reward. One thing I was wondering and not one of the comments addressed this is due to your heating it up and cooling it down in water would that not take the tempering out of the steel rendering it unsafe to fire, Hence a wall-hanging conversation piece? Thank you
