Rusted shut weird blunt pocket knife restoration

I found a cool old portable CRT TV at the local tip shop that I really wanted, it had woodgrain vinyl and everything but they wanted 15 dollars for it so I said "15 dollars, are you joking?" and they said "no" so I bought this rusted shut bevel gauge for a dollar instead.
The double vinegar boiler worked pretty good, I heated it up a few times a day over a few days.
It came up nice but doesn't lock as well as I would like it to, that might be normal for this type of locking system. I added some washers under the wingnut to hopefully yeild more clamping force for the same nut torque but it didn't help much.

Cool knife. It’s interesting that the knife maker made it look like a sliding bevel gauge.

"weird blunt pocket knife" hahaha I have one too, I really should sharpen it one of these days

[@lapislignum]

It would be better at cutting but less good at getting paint tin lids off.

[@ApexHerbivore]

@@lapislignum Wait.... The lids come off?! Aaaaaaaaaaah, that's a great idea, I've just been stabbing holes in the side

[@lapislignum]

Biggest brain!

Only reason I know what that is, from watching Adam Savage just recent. Awesome restoration.

[@lapislignum]

I saw he did something rusty recently, will have to check it out. Thanks for the reminder!

Actually its a sliding T bevel and are a very useful tool

[@lapislignum]

They are good things, I need to make this one lock better though.

[@thornburyrecords]

What's that tool you used to clean the inside of the knife?

[@lapislignum]

Another, more different knife :)
