Eric Krewson:
I just removed the rust but left the patina, oiled the blade and put a new osage handle in the froe.

I have never see a curved blade on a froe all have been straight. The one I restored was made from a car leaf spring.

Don't want to steal the thread, but mine is also from a leaf spring!  I will move my other questions to a new thread, either Around the Campfire odd At the Forge.
