Great work but blade profile is a little off, needs a nail notch and bigger tang to get more spring tension. I have not made any blades but replaced a few. I haven’t mastered a good looking nail notch, just used a dremel cutting wheel, effective but ugly.

Overdid the temper, look for straw not purple.

As a collector, it would be more important for me to preserve the mark than to make a new blade.

Very cool! I've been gathering parts to do something similar. A model T cowl, some 46-48 ford passenger car fenders, etc. I will run a straight 6 Ford because I already have an extra one.

Great job. The Cub and Boy Scout knives are great knives. I have many of both the Imperial and Camillus models. Why didn’t you put a thumb nail cut in the blade? To each his own. Great work.

Are you taking on new projects? I have a Remington RS3333 with a blade broken exactly like this one I would love to have repaired as it is very sentimental

I did something similar. I sectioned/narrowed a 1980 Jeep CJ-7 body (front half) and mated it to a 1927 Buick frame (shortened/narrowed). It’s a single seat car. In-line 6 Chevy 250 with a T400 trans.

Very nice and I like the fact you did not restore every part because an old knife like this needs to show it's age it's like a book telling it's stories and what it has seen in its life.
