    Default Germania Cutlery Works.... 2nd go around turned out very well

    The first time i made scales for this i tried rounded at it split at the end... i cried, but thankfully with a lot of helpful advice i finished it again! This time no disaster....

    Scales are made of "Tigre Caspi" or "Marblewood". these ones turned out way smoother than the bloodwood and was a lot easier to work with, maybe helped i got me a band-saw which is a million times easier to work with than the scroll-saw i had. The only part i wasnt satisfied with is the finish of the blade, you can see in one of the pics if you look at a certain angle it looks cloudy and i couldnt sand it out. But over all very pleased with it.
