It's a 1st model Left dagger. I paid $1,500 for a mint one with all aluminum fittings.
Ohh. Well this one certainly isn't mint condition but I'd imagine it must be worth ~$800 anyway?

For the oil soak, I use Mobil 1 synthetic with a light mix of transmission fluid. It takes a while to work, but it does wonders!
If it all cleans up well, without taking away any finish or patina, it's a $3,000-plus package.
how is the bore? If the outside is rusty, gotta wonder if the bore is any good
