Re scaled W&B in Streaked Buffalo horn
This was fun, I used a completely different system to take the warps out, and de-stress the horn..
Many of you that use this stuff know that the Streaked Horn is the WORST of all of them for warping I will do a complete write up on what I used when I get time
Polished the horn with 3M Tri-m-ite 400-8000 paper
The pins are Brass the outside washers are domed SS inner bearing washers are Brass
The wedge is Faux Ivory the scales are at .115" thickness
No polishing on the steel
Honing was Chosera 1-5-10 with a Smashed Slurry on my Select grade Coticule for finishing
Thanks for looking"No amount of money spent on a Stone can ever replace the value of the time it takes learning to use it properly"

Man, that's nice Glen.
I always said that there is something special about old Sheffield's.
