Clean this handle up?
Thursday rust hunt, will have to do.JPG
Picked this today....Hammer is a 20oz Estwing Curved claw hammer....with leather washers as the handle....
The Stanley No. 923-8in. I can clean up fairly well...same with that screwdriver.....it is those leather washers I am worried about.....
My Late dad used to have one of these...I think it was a 16oz version.....washers are long gone on it, though.
Would like to bring this latest version back to life....without losing those white stripes....The metal part of the hammer should clean up nicely enough....just the handle needs a bit different sort of clean up...
Hmmm...
