Not sure what you mean Zomax, There is still a piece inside the scales.
Thanks for the compliments.

It would seem to be a more secure design preventing movement rather than the opposite. Not only is it inside the scales but the way it wedges against the scales appears to me to keep it from moving or rotating.
Right you are rbaker!
Looks great Sous! Nice work.
Awesome!
I've seen a couple vintage blades with that style wedge -- though in pewter instead of MOP. It's a great look!
I didn't save pictures of the Joseph Rodgers that went through eBay, it was the same design you used, but there's also this Packwood over here, which is very similar.
Wow, never saw that before. I guess I am behind the times by about 230 years.
Brian, I'm diggin that black horn! Your latest creations are impressive bro! I love how this thread shares a fresh restoration along with a history lesson. You guys rule.
