I would like some recomendations for damascus refinishing work. I have Mr. Edmonds contact info, but I do not want to wait a year to have my barrels refinished. Can anyone please recommend a talented barrelsmith/metalsmith/gunsmith who can do an excellent "black & white" refinish on a set of Lefever barrels?
You can email me at maruquinandsons@juno.com

Thanks for any and all help!

LeFusil if someone's good at refinishing barrels they will be backed up. If you do find anyone that does brown and white let me know. I've been searching for over a year now.

I only know of experts in the "browning" field and look forward to hearing from any of you finding new sources for the "black and white."

Nick Makinson does excellent browning with a good turnaround time on British guns.

A couple years ago Mr. Edmunds did my lefever barrels and I had them back in less than a month. A prime example of word of mouth advertising for quality work.
