Re: A few German leverlocks
Actually, It's not German. I made it.
Now, here's something to give you an idea of size.

Here's a German one that I finished converting to shell puller last night.

Re: A few German leverlocks
The spine on that one is beautiful, Bill! Is that filing on the liners, I’m guessing? The colors and textures come together perfectly, there. It’s hard to look away.

Re: A few German leverlocks
The liner coining is done with a lathe knurling bit.
Thank you.

Re: A few German leverlocks
‘Liner coining,’ that’s neat. I haven’t seen it or at least haven’t noticed it anywhere before. I love how it only runs along the scales but is smooth against the bolsters. It gives a really cool effect, striking but not overboard.

Re: A few German leverlocks
what a fantastic collection. Gotta love em. The patina on some of those is amazing
