Asked to put a pic in here of my Model 1926, (3rd Model Hand Ejector).  44 Special, Lettered to Wolf & Klar, May 1927.  Shoes are jigged bone.  This is the only one I have that's handy- right now.

My trade secret: Lemon Pledge. However, the bluing on DWs is first class.  The smith above has no polish at all; it's just mirror smooth.  They knew how to finish them back "in the day"...

Very lucky to look that good after 84 yrs, is that a family gun ?

Came from the same person that I purchased the 45 LC Colt from. That was, without a doubt, my best deal ever. 

 

 I bought the 1st Gen. Colt and this Smith for $700 plus a Bersa .380 I had no use for...

Wow! I thought it was nickle! Cool  I have the same model in nickle, but mine looks like it was dropped in a cement mixer. It belonged to my great grandfather A county Sheriff back in the day when 38 special was king. Yours looks amazing!

P.S. Love the Cyprus knee. Cool idea
