    I would say this was a good ebay find. Blade has almost no hone wear.

    Very pretty! Do you have a before picture?

    Excellent job on the scales, I envy those! I might try making some with the same shape, only I do not have the same bolt/pin you used.

    No I don't have a before. Didn't think of taking one unfortunately.

    The scales were purchased from Hart. I had to drill out the blade pin hole so the bolt/pin would fit

    Heh, I was going to say they looked a lot like Hart's scales, I thought you had used their's as inspiration

    I may make some similar on a future restore. I like the look and feel of them.
