W. Greaves & sons
Replaced the scales on this one. Spent all day cutting grinding and sanding by hand...
bone, punched brass collars, elk antler wedge. This is the first set of scales I've actuallly put some effort into. Learning....blades off center tried to correct with washers inside but to no avail. Ran across a post this evening about how to correct that so I'll give that a whirl tomorrow.

Beautiful job Trimmy
That came out looking great, you should be able to sort the alignment out easy enough
Awesome job all round

Finished honing it last night and had a shave, fantastic shave...except the toe needs some work. Sweet shave otherwise, have to make an adjustment, blades tweaked to the one side to much
