Getting this F type to a usable state was quite a challenge. Likely put away wet with the blade in it 40 years ago, the blade was rusted to pieces. Getting the pieces out without bending or causing any damage was a difficult, but successful task. Sure is purty now . Sent from my SM-G977U using Tapatalk
