<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Dawnno, post: 540879, member: 10171&quot;]two things in the picture support the blade can&#039;t go up any further: 1) there are no grooves in the blade guides above the blade (only below it), and 2) the fulcrum is on the very end where the metal bar and pin are opposite the handle end so the handle would have to go further up, not down.&nbsp; (Plus you can see the guy stretching to hold the handle up)</p><p><br /></p><p>and, I recant on &quot;wet&quot; - that might be a red herring.&nbsp; In the closed position, the notch of the blade rests on the bolt in the center of the supports; in that position the wood may have caused the oxidation, as opposed to oxidation by operation, since the wood stays moist.&nbsp; And the white runny stuff, might just be pigeon poop.&nbsp; Depends on where it was kept in Mississippi, like a barn.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
