Anyway, scales are nice, so not a total loss. Now you just need a Wosty with a great blade and crappy scales -- which is very easy to find!

Thanks man, that's very "glass half full"

And here's another one that kind of looks ok, until you read about the little, tiny crack in the blade. Why people even bother selling these is beyond me!
