Help with 2 and advice?
« on: May 18, 2008, 09:59:00 am »
I am too much a novice to indentify these two. I have these 2, soaked in Olive oil and scrubbed with nylon brush. Not sure if they are as good as they are going to get, just wear or more cleaning? they both facinate me. Any ideas? thanks! Paul

These two are what they are, worn but handsome enough; best just humor them.
