Picked up these 2 a while back in a lot and I am finally getting around to making them useable once again. I tried using the original knots, but they were too far gone. Just need to finish setting the new knots.

Looks good Justin, what are you using for glue to secure the knots?

Love those!
Word of caution, those black tops don't like very hot water.
What knots did you use?

I've got a Rexall, but it doesn't say Klenzo.

Very nice! I need to get one of those mixed knots. I have not tried one and I have a handle that needs a knot.
