Learning on a Parker VH

[B. Dudley]

A U-gouge or a concave checkering cutter on that center line works fine as well.

What i have found interesting is that in looking at many original parker checkering tools (the PGCA owns some, as well as some others in another personal collection), i have not seen one that looked like it was for the mullered borders. I also assume they had a cutter for it. I just find it interesting that in a set of nearly 20 cutters, there wouldnt be one in there.


Also, if you would rather practice your annealing and engraving on other parts vs this complete gun, i can also provide frames and trigger plates for that.
