Philco 46-350 handle help
#1

I rebuilt my Philco 46-350 and it works well, but the reproduction handle was very difficult to install, and is the wrong color. I think the leather on the reproduction is far too thick. I could not tighten down the metal handle retainers until I used a sharp knife the whittle down the thickness of the ends of the strap. Has anyone else had the same problem? Do you know of more than one handle source?
