Another Frederick Reynolds hump back
I tried to keep it in the spirit of the original painted faux tortoise scales with improved faux tortoise. I set them up wedge-less so there wouldn't be a distracting shadow from the wedge, like a WB set I once took apart, and used stainless washers beside the blade to match its color and be less of a distraction.
I left the deeper pitting in the tang and a couple of spots near the spine at the toe.Last edited by Hart; 06-28-2014 at 11:30 PM.

Yes, its Masecraft. Despite how dark it looks (some back lighting would help) it's the lighter of the two available. I had trouble with tiny air bubbles in it, but it eventually came out OK.
