Well done Mike it looks in good nick too. Whatever you do don't try and straighten it cold as it will break, you need to heat it, then cool it, then bend it a tiny bit, then heat and cool etc etc. long old process but rewarding. No shortcuts or you'll end up with two halves. Good luck ;)

Not a bad job at all Mike given that it had a split and was quite a tight fold. Pity about the bend as it looks in great condition (though that may be why), It's a Henry (or Richard, John) but as to which one that's more the Doc;s territory.
Any chance of two more pics but without the camera shake ;D.
