    That is a very nice restoration.
    I agree on reducing the polish on the scales. The difference in the finish levels is too much of a contrast.

    Loving your restorations, Mick. The scales look amazing but agree with too much of a contrast.

    Yes, well done and I like the contrast between blade and scales.

    But why was the steel angry?
    Sorry im not a comedian

    Great job again Tathra .. The scales look nice, if I was gonna satin them I would take 1000 grit paper with a sponge block as backing and perform light pressure circles. What happened with the collars. Have you got a drill press & centering bit?
    Thanks
