Much better than the original, which if i remember correctly, from away back in the 50's iit was called the Buckaneer, as mentioned the original model, like many more knoves of that period were roughly put together wit big gaps where the tang goes through the brass hilt and sometimes the oval section of the handles did not lie upright at the same time as the blade , in other words the blade would be a few degrees out of line with the handle, being made a short while after the. Second world war. Little concern was given to details like that. I always marvel at the attention to detail in even the least expensive mass produced knives nowadays. You certainly have made a great job of making that one, which you are justified in being proud of. good on you. Cheers Stuart.
