    Default Shumate restore

    Shumate in Lava Flow Kirinite. The blade was pretty beat, but it cleaned up well with very little pitting left.
    I managed to match the patterns on each scale and now they flow from one scale to the other. Brass pins, stainless washers, red acrylic wedge.

    Beautiful work my friend.
    Its a bummer when you do all the work, and cant take it for a ride.
    I usually get two rides, just to make sure sure all's good[emoji6]
