Edgar, your knowledge and insights are always appreciated here. I had never really considered the "brittle" possibility. I have only 1 Parker that was re-case hardened (Turnbull I believe) and it matches in appearance very well with the couple of original condition benchmark guns I have been fortunate enough to see and handle. Now, I have no way to know what effect this had on the physical characteristics of the steel.
