Dont feel bad. It is a thought that has crossed my mind more than once. Now, I do have a Busse that is getting a make over because the previous owner started a conversion and stripped it, and messed up a convex attempt. I realized it was out of my area so it ended up costing me more money than a new blade of same style but it will be a one off.

Men you can't trust, women you can't trust, beasts you can't trust, but Bussekin steel you can trust
