Bobpuls, this is the best pictures i can take with my phone. What do you think?

Ok ..... First remove all small chips if th w re are some....
Then put it into steam of boiling water.... But only this edge not whole blade. Keep it there only for a while to get the wood soft.
After it is soft put betwen two hard wood board a press it.... And keep it this way thru the night.
This way we get thevcurved wood flat .
But if it is not curved then you can skyp this part.
And now go according this video.

Hope you restoration goes well.

Oh yeah!! i'm gonna do that! just one doubt. How much time should i keep the dent in the water?

No in the water !!!! in the steam of the boiling water ... until it get soft and can be bend with fingers ... you can take it out from the steam and checking by hand (but wear gloves to not get burned your fingers) ... and put there only this small part to avoid unsealing the other part of the blade. hope you understand.

I could film the restoration. So when ppl needed to do, they already had the tutorial. Oh well, maybe next time.
