Old Sythes

Aug 18, 2003 2 Replies

Sorry, to ask a question about old hand tools but did not know where else to ask.



I have just acquired a couple of very old sythes. The blades are rusty but still solid and the wood is solid, no rot or woodworm, just need some advice on restoring them so that I can use one for work and the other to put on the wall in the house. Hope someone can help or point me in a direction...?



Thanks n advance,
