Thread: Geneva gets new clothes

After decades of wearing the same black dress Miss Geneva Cutleryco decides its time to change into something a little more modern. Choosing the latest in cobalt blue acrylic with accessories in stainless steel and nickels silver she completes the ensemble with a bone wedge. One can tell by the smile on her face she is happy with the new look.

Well executed!

The colors & the work are fantastic....

thanks for the compliments! i had two designs drawn up, the other a more traditional shaped scale and had my family vote on their favorite. this wasn't the winner. guess i knew which one i liked before the vote.

Nice, I like the entire look.
Now to share the first thing that came to my mind.

Nicely done. I seem to have developed a preference for the Genevas. Before Genco bought, even the smaller sizes seemed to have a beefier shank - easier for the ham-handed to wield. 'Entirely worth the effort to give the gal proper attire.

Cool to the tenth power.

Superb restore. Where did you get the cobalt blue acrili?

thanks, i got it from WoodPenPro.com they sell monster 1x6 acrylic pen blanks. it was harder to work with than i expected. used mostly hand tools and it really seemed to eat up the tools, plus it really stank (that's why i tried to stay away from making lots of dust).
